Stars and StripesDOD policy on transgender surgery for family of service members ruled unconstitutionalThe Pentagon denied two transgender women health insurance coverage for gender-affirmation surgery recommended by their doctors. According to a recent ruling by a federal court in Maine, this violates equal protection rights under the Fifth Amendment based on sex and transgender status. Congress continues to debate whether federal health programs like Tricare should cover gender-affirming care and related support services.
