The video discusses a significant waiver allowing a transgender officer, Jane Doe, to serve openly as her preferred gender in the military. This is the first such waiver since the Trump administration's ban on most transgender individuals serving. Under the previous policy, transgender people could only continue serving if they adhered to their birth-assigned gender.
