âTwo national LGBTQ legal organizations filed a federal lawsuit Tuesday challenging President Donald Trumpâs executive order barring transgender people from serving and enlisting in the military. The suit was filed on behalf of six active duty trans service members and two trans people seeking to enlist.
âThis ban betrays fundamental American values of equal opportunity and judging people on their merit,â Jennifer Levi, the senior director of transgender and queer rights at GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders (GLAD Law), said in a statement. âIt slams the door on qualified patriots who meet every standard and want nothing more than to serve their country, simply to appease a political agenda. Thatâs not just un-American, it makes our country weaker by pushing away talented service members who put their lives on the line every day for our nation.ââ

Very good.
All Americans must fight against Trumpâs ignorance, bigotry, and hate, and that of Trump's supporters.
