(CNSNews.com) - Former Vice President Joe Biden says that if he becomes president he will restore the policy followed during the Obama Administration that allowed transgender individuals to serve openly in the U.S. military.
In June 2016, the Obama-Biden Administration overturned the ban on transgender individuals serving openly, without hiding their gender identity, says The Biden Plan to Advance LGBTQ+ Equality in America and Around the World , which is posted on Bidens campaign website.
But Trump reversed this policy, barring transgender patriots from serving openly, says the Biden plan.
This is discriminatory and detrimental to our national security, says Bidens plan. Every American who is qualified to serve in our military should be able to do soregardless of sexual orientation or gender identity and without having to hide who they are.
Biden, says the plan, will direct the U.S. Department of Defense to allow transgender service members to serve openly, receive needed medical treatment, and be free from discrimination.
Here is the passage from plan to advance LGBTQ+ equality that talks about allowing transgender service members to serve openly:
Reverse the transgender military ban. In 2010, Biden played a leading role in the Obama-Biden Administrations repeal of Dont Ask, Dont Tell to allow gay, lesbian, and bisexual service members to serve the country they love without hiding their sexual orientation. In June 2016, the Obama-Biden Administration overturned the ban on transgender individuals serving openly, without hiding their gender identity. But Trump reversed this policy, barring transgender patriots from serving openly. This is discriminatory and detrimental to our national security. Every American who is qualified to serve in our military should be able to do soregardless of sexual orientation or gender identity and without having to hide who they are. Biden will direct the U.S. Department of Defense to allow transgender service members to serve openly, receive needed medical treatment, and be free from discrimination.
Maybe obama loaned him Valerie Jarrett?
I thought it was “settled science” that there were XX chromosomes and XY chromosomes.
Goes without saying. However, Biden has traits that the American voter admire as evidenced by the election and reelection of Bill Clinton and barrack obama: He is a thief. a liar, and crook.
Yep, but Rats only agree with science when it fits their agenda.
Joe “Fingers” Biden says he will bring the troops home from Vietnam and create a Dept of Energy to ween us of foreign oil.
Joe is just a placeholder until the convention, but of course this is standard Democrat doctrine. No Democrat in the current year could do otherwise. So Michelle Obama or whoever would do the same.
Theres no such thing as transgender. It is purely a political identity.
Biden will direct the U.S. Department of Defense because he thinks defense is what goes around the White House.
At this point in his obvious dementia I believe you’re right.
They already do. Some of the Generals even pretend to be Marines.
Ah, he knows the issues that are near and dear to the hearts of every American./s
Our enemies are praying to Allah that Joe wins.
Perversity is not diversity.
Biden is hoping to get less than 30% of the popular vote...
How is this any different from every other Demonicrat contender for president. Biden cant even be original.

I need a barf bag.
Will Joe get to fondle the trannies and sniff their hair?
