A panel of judges on the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday denied the Trump DOJ’s request to pause a lower court’s block on the administration’s transgender military ban.
A second federal judge last week temporarily blocked President Trump’s ban on transgender troops.
In January President Trump signed the “Restoring America’s Fighting Force” executive order and the “Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness” executive orders, which direct every element of the U.S. military to “operate free from any preference based on race or sex” and root out gender insanity and made up pronoun usage, respectively.
US District Judge Benjamin Hale Settle in Washington State, issued a nationwide preliminary injunction last week.
Judge Settle, a George W. Bush appointee, said the Trump DOJ’s arguments have not been persuasive.
Trump’s DOJ filed an appeal on Friday.
