Trump Asks US Supreme Court to Reinstate Ban on Transgender Military Service

The Trump administration has asked the US Supreme Court to uphold its policy barring transgender Americans from serving in the military. The appeal challenges a federal court ruling that protected 28 transgender service members who sued over the policy. The administration argues that the military should have broad authority to decide who is eligible to serve. The policy was introduced through an executive order shortly after Trump returned to office. It follows a similar first-term ban that was repealed by former President Joe Biden in 2021. The Supreme Court may decide later this year whether to hear the case.
