The article discusses the reinstatement of Donald Trump's trans military ban, which negatively impacts transgender service members like Air Force Master Sgt. Alexandria Holder. After Trump signed an executive order declaring that only two sexes exist and that service members must adhere strictly to these definitions, new policies were implemented that could force the separation of many trans personnel from the military. Holder reflects on how these changes bring back the challenges of discrimination and exclusion that many have already faced.
"The recent actions by the Trump administration have reinstituted the negative impact of exclusionary policies on transgender individuals in the military, emphasizing the hurtful reality of discrimination."
"Under this ban, trans service members will face separation unless they can provide compelling evidence that their presence helps support military capabilities, essentially questioning their worth in the force."
