"The Trump administration is “undoing decades of civil and human rights progress” — especially when it comes to LGBTQ issues — according to a new report by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, an independent, bipartisan advisory agency.
In its 621-page report, “Are Civil Rights a Reality?,” the commission found that, despite the “extraordinary volume” of civil rights complaints filed in the first two years of the Trump administration, agencies charged with protecting civil rights "generally lack adequate resources to investigate and resolve discrimination allegations within their jurisdiction, leaving allegations of civil rights violations unredressed.”
With respect to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer civil rights, the report criticized several policy changes under the Trump administration that have limited the ability of federal agencies to enforce LGBTQ civil rights or redirected efforts toward other priorities.
“In addition to using the budget and other processes to undermine civil rights enforcement, the Administration has also changed course in many substantive civil rights policy areas,” Karen Narasaki, one of the commission’s eight members, stated in the report, which was released last Thursday. “An obvious example is this Administration’s rollback of efforts to combat LGBTQ discrimination.”
“The changes I’ve watched unfold since 2016 are truly unprecedented in the nearly 30 years I have worked in the nation’s Capital,” Narasaki added. “This Administration is not just shifting enforcement priorities, they are undoing decades of civil and human rights progress.”"

To claim Trump has
NO HISTORY OF HOMOPHOBIA is to
LIE THROUGH YOUR TEETH! Read the report summary because I know you wouldn't have the attention span or comprehension skills to read the complete 621 report you bloody lying fool... too many words with five or more letters words!!!!
I see that you didn't notice how they are deceiving you, pay attention to the quotes in this section from NBC news:
In its 621-page report, “
Are Civil Rights a Reality?,”
the commission found that, despite the “extraordinary volume” of civil rights complaints filed in the first two years of the Trump administration, agencies charged with protecting civil rights "generally lack adequate resources to investigate and resolve discrimination allegations within their jurisdiction, leaving allegations of civil rights violations unredressed.”
bolding mine
=====================
Here is the full section from the Executive Summary, page 18:
"As documented in this report, the extraordinary volume of complaints filed with federal civil rights agencies and findings and resolutions from these agencies underscore the reality that, today, the nation still has not reached a time when recognition of and protection for core civil rights promises is the norm for all Americans. The Commission heard compelling bipartisan testimony regarding ongoing widespread civil rights harms that underscore the need for strong federal agency enforcement of federal civil rights laws."
Note the past tense?
"....the nation still has not reached a time..."
See what they did?
This part is true, the rest above in the bold are misleading,
"generally lack adequate resources to investigate and resolve discrimination allegations within their jurisdiction, leaving allegations of civil rights violations unredressed.”
That was from the
Executive Summary you didn't read (pages 15-19), where no mention of Trumps name mentioned, It has been a problem for many years, long before Trump arrived,
a problem that is still not being fully addressed, as pointed out in the report. It is an ongoing problem that needs to be addressed, suggesting that Congress address some of the causes. Some of it during the Trump era, and from PREVIOUS administrations.
From the
LETTER to the President you didn't read, from pages 5-6,
Excerpt:
"The Commission majority approved key findings including the following: the extraordinary volume of complaints filed with federal civil rights agencies and findings and resolutions from these agencies underscore the reality that, today, the nation still has not reached a time when recognition of and protection for core civil rights promises is the norm for all Americans. The Commission heard compelling bipartisan testimony regarding ongoing widespread civil rights harms that underscore the need for strong federal agency enforcement of federal civil rights laws. In evaluating data across 13 agencies, the Commission found agencies generally lack adequate resources to investigate and resolve discrimination allegations within their jurisdiction, leaving allegations of civil rights violations unredressed.
