Bill > SR8

This resolution urges the Governor of Hawaii to take action to protect transgender members of the Hawaii National Guard from a discriminatory federal policy, specifically referencing an executive order from the Trump administration that bans transgender individuals from serving in the U.S. military if they have a history of gender dysphoria or have undergone medical transitions, and also paused gender-affirming care. The resolution argues that this federal policy is discriminatory, undermines military readiness, and is inconsistent with Hawaii's values, and therefore calls for the Governor to allow qualified transgender service members to continue their service within the state's National Guard.
