Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday released a detailed plan to tackle the needs of the military and veterans that pledges to roll back Trump administration policies that bar transgender troops and to not deport non-citizens who have served in uniform, or their families.
The Massachusetts senator who is seeking the Democratic presidential nomination maintains her first step as president would be to overturn President Donald Trump's decision to prohibit transgender troops in the military.
"I'll reverse it on the first day of my presidency," she says in the plan, insisting "the only thing that should matter when it comes to allowing military personnel to serve is whether or not they can handle the job."
That also means "providing all medically necessary care related to the health of transgender people" such as transition-related surgery, according to her "Keeping Our Promises to Our Service Members, Veterans, and Military Families," which is being released ahead of Veterans Day.
