HRC Article:

WASHINGTON — Last night, President Biden signed the FY25 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law, which includes a provision inserted by Speaker Mike Johnson blocking healthcare for the transgender children of military servicemembers. This provision, the first anti-LGBTQ+ federal law enacted since the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996, will rip medically necessary care from the transgender children of thousands of military families – families who make incredible sacrifices in defense of the country each and every day. The last anti-LGBTQ+ federal law that explicitly targeted military servicemembers was Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, which went into effect in 1994.

Biden’s press release:

No service member should have to decide between their family’s health care access and their call to serve our Nation.

    No, i read everything you wrote and then asked for clarification, but you called that ‘moving the goal posts’, so I just used what was given to speculate.

    ‘Woke’ is frequently used as a reactionary dog whistle and is typically meant very broadly to mean ‘non-white cis male issues’. I still think youd be more comfortable at a nazi bar.
