Federal court confirms people with HIV can enlist in military
Original: Federal court clarifies that people with HIV can join the military again
A federal court has clarified that people living with HIV are allowed to join the military again, reinforcing that a blanket ban on their enlistment is not lawful. The ruling follows earlier litigation over Pentagon policies that barred or restricted HIV-positive applicants. Advocates welcomed the clarification as a step toward ending discrimination against people with HIV in military service.
Why now: The court ruling changes a long-standing military policy that excluded people with HIV from enlisting.
