From the article: "Emily Shilling, who has been openly transgender since 2019, is currently serving as a commander in the Navy with more than 19 years of service, including as a combat pilot who flew 60 missions in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
“I just want to continue serving my country, using the skills this nation invested in me as a fighter pilot and leader,” she said, stressing that she was speaking in her personal capacity. “For nearly two decades, I’ve upheld the highest standards of excellence, leading teams in combat and peace. All I ask is the opportunity to keep using my training and experience to serve this country with honor, courage and dedication.”

From the article: "Donald Trump has signed another executive order aimed at the transgender community on Tuesday, this time prohibiting gender transitions for people under the age of 19.
“It is the policy of the United States that it will not fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support the so-called ‘transition’ of a child from one sex to another, and it will rigorously enforce all laws that prohibit or limit these destructive and life-altering procedures,” reads the president’s executive order.
"The order denotes that “child” or “children” means an individual or individuals under 19 years of age and that the term “pediatric” means relating to the medical care of a child. It also clarifies that the phrase “chemical and surgical mutilation” entails puberty blockers, the use of hormones such as estrogen or testosterone, and surgical procedures. Much of what is mentioned is known as gender-affirming care."

From the article: "The order directly contradicts a number of existing laws and recent court rulings and is likely to face legal challenges. It also defies decades of research into how human bodies grow and develop.
"The document represents “a dramatic failure to understand biology,” said Rachel Levin, a Pomona College neuroscientist who studies the development of sex.
"In the order, sex is described as “an individual’s immutable biological classification as either male or female,” and, despite Trump’s own conflation in his address, it says sex does not serve as a synonym for gender identity."

Surce: KQED
From the article: "Trans-rights advocacy groups preparing to deal with the repercussions of an executive order signed this week by President Trump, which could jeopardize federal protections for members of the transgender community, say they will step up support efforts and are considering legal action.
"After months of unrelenting anti-trans attacks from conservative leaders, the directive from Trump’s administration, which declares that the federal government recognizes only two sexes: male and female, did not come as a surprise to many local organizers and civil rights activists. Rolling back protections for gender-nonconforming people was always a central part of the president’s campaign.
"Community groups dedicated to supporting transgender and nonbinary people have been readying themselves since Trump’s electoral victory in November, said Heron Greenesmith, deputy director of policy at the Transgender Law Center in Oakland. Community outreach services are already in place to educate people on their rights and to provide legal assistance to those who need it."

Tomorrow, Saturday September 23rd is Bisexual Visibility Day.
Bisexuals comprise over 50% of the LGBTQ community yet we tend to be the silent majority and are not as visible as other segments.
With the current anti-Trans / anti-LGBTQ political climate it is time we make out voices heard and stand alongside Lesbian, Gay, Transgender and other Queer people to vote for Trans and LGBTQ rights and protections.
We should also work with other marginalized communities to ensure their voices are heard as well.
