Supreme Court Allows Military Policy Change to Proceed, Overturning Lower Court Block

The U.S. Supreme Court has overturned a lower court injunction that had blocked the implementation of a new military policy concerning transgender service members. This decision allows the Department of Defense to move forward with changes previously halted by legal challenges.

While the Supreme Court did not rule on the core legal arguments in the case, it did grant a stay on the injunction, permitting the policy to be enforced while litigation continues. The policy directs the military to revise its medical and enlistment standards related to gender identity and to rescind earlier guidance considered inconsistent with military preparedness.

Three justices dissented from the decision, stating they would have allowed the injunction to remain in place pending further review.
