First, a reminder from January 2021:
President Joe Biden has repealed Donald Trump’s ban on transgender Americans joining the military. The ban was announced by Mr Trump during his first year in office. “Transgender servicemembers will no longer be subject to the possibility of discharge or separation on the basis of gender identity,” the White House said.
“President Biden believes that gender identity should not be a bar to military service, and that America’s strength is found in its diversity,” the White House statement added. The ban took effect in April 2019. Trans personnel who were already serving were allowed to continue, but new recruits were locked out.
As you may recall, the decision to allow already serving trans military personnel to remain only came after Trump lost four successive court cases. Note item #15 on the Project 2025 list below.
Kamala Harris is fear-mongering for LGBT votes.
❌ Trump did NOT take away protections for LGBT workers or patients.
❌ Trump did NOT ban trans people from the military.
✅ Trump DID create a booming economy and secure the border. But Kamala doesn’t want to talk about that. https://t.co/XmNWxw95Si
