BREAKING: The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to allow it to enforce a ban on transgender service members in the military.
Solicitor General D. John Sauer filed an emergency application at the court seeking to block a nationwide injunction issued by a judge in Washington state. He wrote in the court filing that the judge’s injunction "cannot be squared with the substantial deference that the department’s professional military judgements are owed."
The ban is similar to a policy Trump implemented in his first term, which the Supreme Court allowed to go into effect. The policy "generally disqualifies from military service individuals who have gender dysphoria or have undergone medical interventions for gender dysphoria," Sauer wrote.
