A federal judge has halted the enforcement of President Trump’s transgender military ban, citing potential constitutional violations.
U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes‘s ruling echoed another decision made earlier in the day, both concluding the ban likely infringes on the rights of transgender service members.
The rulings occurred amidst a rare public dispute, where Trump’s calls for a judge’s impeachment were rebuked by Chief Justice John Roberts. Judge Reyes granted the administration time to appeal, delaying her order’s implementation until Friday.
