The Trump administration has been working to ban transgender troops from the military since the start of Trump’s second term. This past June, a U.S. court of appeals ruled that a policy to expel transgender troops was a violation of the Constitution. Last month the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, announced that he was ridding the military of all transgender troops with review boards set up by the Pentagon with directives that all but ensure that trans troops appearing before them would be voted out. However, the rank-and-file members of these boards are rejecting these orders and voting to keep their trans colleagues.
