John,
The Trump administration is attacking the rights of transgender Americans, this time by reinstating a cruel and baseless ban on transgender service members. This policy isn’t about military readiness, it’s about discrimination, plain and simple.
Under Trump’s new directive, transgender individuals are barred from enlisting in the military, and those already serving face impossible ultimatums: suppress their identity or face discharge. The policy even denies transgender service members access to necessary medical care, forcing them to choose between their health and their careers.
This is a disgrace. Transgender troops have served with honor and distinction. The Pentagon itself has repeatedly stated that their presence does not harm military effectiveness. Yet Trump is choosing hate over facts, bigotry over bravery.
We cannot allow this administration to erase transgender people from public life, let alone from serving their country. It’s time to fight back.
Sign now to denounce Trump’s ban and stand with our transgender service members.
The U.S. military should be focused on capability and commitment, not on pushing a far-right ideological agenda that harms the very people willing to risk their lives for this country.
By reinstating this policy, Trump is sending a chilling message: that discrimination is not only acceptable, but enforceable by the government. We cannot let this stand.
Our transgender service members deserve better. They deserve respect, protection, and the right to serve openly without fear of being cast aside. We must make our voices heard and demand an end to this disgraceful policy.
Join us in taking a stand, sign now to denounce Trump’s ban on transgender troops.
Together, we can send a clear message: Discrimination has no place in our military.
