troops<\/a><\/span> from the military within 30 days unless they obtain a waiver on a case-by-case basis, the Pentagon said in a Wednesday memo.<\/p>\n<p> The memo became public as <a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.dcd.276845\/gov.uscourts.dcd.276845.63.1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">part of a court filing<\/a> in a case challenging President Trump&#8217;s late January <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-executive-orders-military\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">executive order<\/a><\/span> that was aimed at barring military service by transgender personnel.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Service members who have a current diagnosis or history of, or exhibit symptoms consistent with, gender dysphoria will be processed for separation from military service,&#8221; the memo read.<\/p>\n<p> These troops may be &#8220;considered for a waiver on a case-by-case basis, provided there is a compelling government interest in retaining the service member that directly supports warfighting capabilities,&#8221; it said.<\/p>\n<p> To obtain such a waiver, troops must show that they have never attempted to transition, as well as demonstrate &#8220;36 consecutive months of stability in the service member&#8217;s sex without clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Transgender people have faced a roller coaster of changing policies on military service in recent years, with Democratic administrations seeking to permit them to serve openly, while Mr. Trump has repeatedly sought to keep them out of the ranks.<\/p>\n<p> The U.S. military lifted a ban on transgender troops in 2016, during then-President Barack Obama&#8217;s second term.<\/p>\n<p> Under that policy, trans troops already serving were permitted to do so openly, and transgender recruits were set to start being accepted by July 1, 2017.<\/p>\n<p> But the first Trump administration postponed that date to 2018 before deciding <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/white-house-announces-ban-on-most-transgender-service-members\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">to reverse the policy<\/a><\/span> entirely.<\/p>\n<p> Mr. Trump&#8217;s controversial restrictions \u2014 which underwent changes in response to various court challenges \u2014 eventually came into force in April 2019 following a protracted legal battle that went all the way to the nation&#8217;s top court.<\/p>\n<p> Mr. Trump&#8217;s successor, former President Joe Biden, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/biden-lifts-military-transgender-ban\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">moved to reverse the restrictions<\/a><\/span> just days after he took office in 2021, saying all Americans qualified to serve should be able to do so.<\/p>\n<p> After returning to office in January, Trump issued an executive order that again took aim at transgender military service, saying: &#8220;Expressing a false &#8216;gender identity&#8217; divergent from an individual&#8217;s sex cannot satisfy the rigorous standards necessary for military service.&#8221;\u00a0
