Regardless that corrupt Congress is letting the U.S. Department of Agriculture get away with this politically correct mischief, note that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to promote constitutionally unprotected LGBT issues.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.

Remember in November !

Patriots need to support Trump / Pence by also electing a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support Trump’s vision for making America great again for everybody, but will put a stop to unconstitutional federal government inteference in state affairs.

Note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.

FWIW.

I suspect the next step in this insanity will be for the Federal Government to Grant the LGBT*** community “Special Status” when it comes to Federal Government Contracts.

They already have the “Set-Aside” program with 7 major categories and I’m certain they are working to add another.

The LGBT** designation.

1. Small Business

2. Minority Business Enterprise (MBE)

3. Woman-Owned Business

4. Veteran-Owned Business

5. Disabled Veteran-Owned Business

6. Small/Disadvantaged Business SBA 8(a) Program

7. Historically Under-Utilized Business (HUB) Zone Located

Understand that there is a certain percentage of all Government contracts that MUST be awarded to these “Set-Asides”.

Every fiscal year dozens of Federal agencies scramble to find “Qualified Set-asides” to balance out their awards. By adding the LGBT** whatever, to their choices makes their job easier and given the current political correctness of our Federal Government there is nobody that will stop them.

I was just about to ask, under which of the 18 enumerated powers does this outreach fall? Bravo to you.
