President Donald Trump on Monday signed a slew of executive orders that sought to repeal Biden-era policies. One order repealed a provision that allows transgender people to serve in the military.

The move clears the way for a complete ban on trans servicemembers, and could have a huge impact on San Diego.

With more anti-trans legislation on the horizon, local LGBTQ+ groups are bracing themselves against continued attacks on the trans and nonbinary community. We check in with the San Diego LGBT Community Center about how they are supporting community members during this time.

Plus, there are nationwide efforts to ban gender affirming care for youth. That includes medications that block the onset of puberty for minors diagnosed with gender dysphoria and other forms of medical care.

We look at how a growing loss of coverage could affect trans and nonbinary youth and their families.
