California does not support President Donald Trump’s ban on prohibiting transgender people from serving in the army, which was put in effect as of January 22nd of this year. California Governor, Gavin Newsom, stated in a news conference yesterday that they are not making an effort to identify and dismiss transgender troops due to the federal ban. David Baldwin, adjutant general of the California National Guard also stated along the same sentiment that transgender people should be able to serve alongside their fellow soldiers because they bring value to the force.
