March 28, 2019

Washington, DC – Today, Rep. Susie Lee (NV-03), a member of the LGBTQ Equality Caucus, voted in favor of the resolution passed by the House of Representatives to reject President Trump's military transgender ban.

Rep. Susie Lee issued the following statement about the resolution to oppose President Trump's military transgender ban:

"Anyone who decides to risk their lives to protect our country deserves to have the opportunity to join our military. Banning brave Americans based on their gender identity is reprehensible and runs counter to our values. I'm glad Congress is stepping up to defend the transgender community and ensure that everyone who wants to perform honorable service can do so."
