A federal judge in Washington, D.C., has issued a preliminary injunction that prohibits the Trump administration from implementing a planned ban on transgender individuals from serving in the military, the ABA Journal reports. The injunction was issued today by U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly.
