• In 2020, just two weeks into Pride Month and on the anniversary of the deadly Pulse nightclub shooting at an LGBTQ club in Orlando, and in the middle of the pandemic, the Trump administration issued new regulations that:
• In 2019, Trump proposed cutting over $1.35 billion, or 29%, from the PEPFAR (the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief) budget, the largest-ever proposed cuts to global HIV programs. PEPFAR is the U.S. government program that fights AIDS abroad. In 2017, Trump proposed cutting 17% of PEPFAR’s funding as well as hundreds of millions of dollars in funding from the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria; and $627 billion from Medicaid, the insurance through which a

  The Real List of Trump’s “Unprecedented Steps” for the LGBTQ Community

  HRC lists Trump's persistent attacks against the LGBTQ community after the RNC claims he's taken "unprecedented steps" in support of the community.

  HRC President Alphonso David: “The RNC is hallucinating and moving forward misleading and  disingenuous rhetoric. Yes, Trump has taken many ‘unprecedented’ steps, but those steps own been to undermine and eliminate rights protecting LGBTQ people, not empower us. Appointing a minor handful of male lover people out of thousands of nominations and making a very few -- and unfullfilled -- pledges can hardly qualify as accomplishments.  Don’t gaslight us.  The Trump-Pence administration is the most virulently anti-LGBTQ administration in decades -- the RNC cannot put lipstick on a pig.”

  Here’s a list of attacks the Trump-Pence administration has levied against LGBTQ people:

     Background On Trump Day One Executive Orders Impacting The LGBTQ+ Community

     by Brandon Wolf •

     Overview   

     On his first morning in office as the 47th president of the Joined States, President Trump signed a slew of executive orders (EOs) that impact the LGBTQ+ people, as well as many others. It is important to mention that executive behavior do NOT contain the authority to override the Joined States Constitution, federal statutes, or established legal precedent. Many of these directives accomplish just that or are regarding matters over which the president does not have control. Given that, many of these orders will be difficult, if not impossible, to implement, and actions to do so will be challenged through litigation.
     
     Currently, much is unknown about whether or how the administration or other actors will comply with these directives, and in most instances rules will need to be promulgated or significant administrative guidance will need to be issued in order for implementation to occur. These are processes that take time and require detailed additional plans to be developed. 

     Newly Issued Executive Orders

     A number of executive actions yesterday will impact the LGBTQ+ comm

     U.S. President Donald Trump has used his first six months in office to enact multiple policies impacting the lives of Homosexual Americans in areas appreciate healthcare, legal recognition and education.

     On July 17, the government ended the nation's specialised mental health services for LGBTQ+ youth through the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, with the White House describing it as a service where "children are encouraged to embrace radical gender ideology".

     The administration also filed a lawsuit against California this month over state policies that allow transgender female athletes to compete in girls' categories of college sports.

     But rights groups are fighting back. Nine Gay and HIV-related organisations own had more than $6 million in funding restored following a lawsuit against three of Trump's executive orders.

     Here's everything you deserve to know:

     What action has Trump taken on Homosexual rights?

     Trump started his second term on Jan. 20 by signing an executive order stating the Merged States would only recognise two sexes - male and female - before scrapping the use of a gender-neutral "X" marker in passports.

     He said federal funds would not be used to "promote gender ident

     Donald Trump's past statements about LGBT rights

     — -- President Donald Trump's surprise tweets this morning announcing a reversal in the policy allowing transgender people to serve openly in the military is one of his clearest policy moves relating to the LGBT community since taking office.

     The move marks a shift in his widespread stance, after his not taking a hard line against transgender rights during the campaign.

     The tweets signal that the Trump administration is ready to prohibit transgender people from the military. The president's announcement comes after Defense Secretary James Mattis last month delayed the review of an Obama-era policy that allowed transgender people to join the military.

     Trump never specifically talked about the policy during the campaign, instead tending to converse about LGBT rights in relation to news events that were playing out at the time.

     The 'bathroom bill'

     He first spoke specifically about transgender rights when the controversial "bathroom bill" went into effect in North Carolina during the campaign.

     Though not committing either way, Trump called it a "very strong" relocate to force people to use t
