Transgender People Will Be Able to Enlist in Military Next Year

On Monday, Pentagon officials report to the Associated Press that transgender people will be able to enlist in the military the first of the year despite the presidents opposition.

This comes after Trump’s ordered ban suffers more legal setbacks, including three federal courts ruling against it–the latest one on Monday.

Potential transgender recruits will have to overcome a lengthy and strict set of physical, medical, and mental conditions that could still make it difficult to enlist.
