Trump administration asks Supreme Court to consider ban on transgender persons in the military

The Trump administration has taken a step to address the ban on transgender persons in the military. A request has been made to the Supreme Court to consider the issue. This move comes after a federal appeals court decision that prevented the government from enforcing the ban. The U.S. Solicitor General has expressed concern over the appeals court decision, describing it in strong terms. The administration is now seeking the Supreme Court's input on whether the ban violates the Constitution. Further details on this development are available from SCOTUSblog, which is following the story in the local area.
