HR 1808 United States House · 118th Congress

Ensuring Military Readiness Not Discrimination Act

HR 1808 prohibits the military from considering gender identity, sexual orientation, or sex characteristics when determining service eligibility or implementing policies. It requires that all eligibility decisions and military treatment be based solely on a person's ability to meet job-specific military standards, not on protected characteristics like race, religion, or sex. The bill directly affects all current and prospective military members by mandating equality in service through new provisions added to Title 10 of U.S. Code.
