(Worthy News) - The White House is expected to send guidance to the Pentagon in coming days on how to implement a new administration ban on transgender people in the military, issuing a policy that will allow Defense Secretary Jim Mattis to consider a service member’s ability to deploy in deciding whether to kick them out of the military.
The White House memo also directs the Pentagon to deny admittance to transgender individuals and to stop spending on medical treatment regimens for those currently serving, according to U.S. officials familiar with the document.
The 2½-page memo gives Mr. Mattis six months to prepare to fully implement the new ban, according to these officials. [ Source (Read More...) ]

Praise God, American People should not have to pay for peoples decision to change their lifestyle. If they make a choice to change their born identity then they should have to pay there own way. And the American people should not have to bend over and give in to something that is a person decision. They should not be allowed in the Military at all.
