The Supreme copurt ruled that the Civil Rights Act's section regarding discrimination on the basis of sex *does* apply to homosexuals and transgender folks . So now sexual orientation and gender identity are protected classes.

A quote: "The vote was 6-3 with conservatives Chief Justice John Roberts and Neil Gorsuch joining the court's four liberal justices in the majority.".

This prtetty much means that the ban on transgendered people in the military has to go out the window along with the HHs rule change that removed protections for LGBT people.

Trump and a lot of his supporters must be *livid*!
