One would <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-passes-defense-bill-amid-adoption-of-transgender-surgery-amendments\/\" title=\"House approves defense bill with transgender surgery amendments.\">prohibit military service academies<\/a> from using federal funds to discriminate against applicants or set quotas based on their race or ethnicity.
