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.

    For the top level posting, the headline should be the original because the edited versions don’t necessarily line up with the article.

    This is not what Rule 1 says. Post title matching the article title was a Reddit thing that was good to jettison.

      In your opinion, not ours.

        What? That’s literally the rule you guys wrote. If you don’t like it and want to change it, you should probably edit the sidebar. And then make a public post to the community for a well-earned drubbing.
