Biden Signs Executive Order Enhancing LGBTQ Protections On Day 1 | HuffPost
The order tells federal agencies to apply discrimination protections to sexual orientation and gender identity, a stark reversal from the Trump administration.
Under the new executive guidance, federal agencies are to assume that laws forbidding discrimination apply to sexual orientation and gender identity, not just race, religion, sex and national origin. The measure was part of a slew of orders Biden signed shortly after his swearing-in, as both a substantive and a symbolic rebuke of the Trump era.
The order suggests that enforcement agencies under Biden will be open to pursuing discrimination complaints on behalf of LGBTQ people in a way the Trump administration was not.
The Supreme Court issued a
landmark decision last June ruling that
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
protects workers from discrimination related to sexual orientation and gender identity. But that ruling applies explicitly to discrimination in the workplace, whereas Biden’s executive order makes clear the safeguards extend to other areas like housing and education.
What has he done so far to make life better and safer for everyday working Americans? The workplace is now your home so doubt much discrimination is going on there.
Man, people are such easily manipulated sheep.
I find it hard to believe the level of stupidity going on here. You doubt that there is any discrimination in the workplace. ?? Pull your head out!
Then there are those blathering about trans people and men in dresses and women’s rooms, sexualizing children, special treatment for “perverts” and all sorts of other stupid shit
PEOPLE! This is about the right of all people to work without fear of being discriminated again because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. That is not special treatment. It does not condone behavior that is offensive or that would disrupt the workplace. It does not promote child sexual about. You people need to grow the fuck up and get an education, and while you're at it , consider how you would feel if you could be fired simply for having a picture of you partner or spouse on your desk or posted to Facebook if seen by someone who disapproved of them for some reason. You people make me sick with your viciousness and ignorance.
