Trump administration can enforce transgender military ban, Supreme Court says
"The Trump administration's ban on transgender troops in the military can go into effect after the Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled enforcement could start.
The big picture: The emergency ruling green lights the ban, which is part of President Trump's wider attacks on transgender people, while challenges move forward in courts.
The court's three liberal justices, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson, dissented.
Context: Trump signed an executive order in January stating that the federal government will only recognize male and female as sexes. He also revoked an executive order from former President Biden that allowed trans people to serve openly.
Trump called on the Pentagon to formulate a policy that would target transgender service members."
