Before returning to the White House 100 days ago, Donald Trump was already the president with the most anti-LGBTQ actions to his name in United States history. His first administration was marred by: arguing and losing at the U.S. Supreme Court for the right to discriminate against LGBTQ employees; signing laws that undercut anti-discriminatory protections for LGBTQ contractors; deploying federal agencies to exclude and discriminate against transgender people seeking health care and housing, as well as baselessly banning transgender troops; and hundreds of other actions.
The first 100 days of his second administration have been bolstered by an agenda supplied by Project 2025, a plan ... that advocates for government policies reflecting a conservative Christian perspective, opposition to LGBTQ rights, restrictions on reproductive freedom, and the privileging of Christianity over other faiths.
"The start of this Administration has revealed an aggressively unAmerican agenda that has destabilized the economy, threatened personal freedoms, and attempted to censor accurate information and history," said GLAAD President and CEO, Sarah Kate Ellis.
GLAAD has documented at least 255 attacks against LGBTQ people in policy and rhetoric since Trump took office on January 20th, adding to the 224 overall during the last nine years.------------------------------
The list is too long to post here, but well worth reading.
It is important to know what actions are being taken against all of us. But it is equally important that we recognize what actions have been blocked. We may not be winning just yet, but we are making strong progress and we have many allies and support organizations to thank for that.
