Biden White House Is Preparing to Confront States on Anti-Trans Bills
The Daily Beast ^ | May 4, 2021 | Tim Teeman

The Human Rights Campaign says the White House is preparing to directly confront the flood of anti-trans and LGBTQ legislation. The Department of Justice may also join the fight.

The Biden administration is preparing to directly confront the rash of anti-LGBT, and specifically anti-trans bills proliferating in state legislatures, according to the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the country’s leading LGBTQ advocacy organization.

Separately, the Department of Justice has told The Daily Beast it will “fully enforce our civil rights statutes to protect transgender individuals,” giving hope to campaigners that the DOJ is preparing to challenge in the courts the legality of bills that have been introduced—and some passed—in a number of states, outlawing transgender youth’s access to health care and sports.

The White House’s move and DOJ declaration follow President Biden’s address to the joint session of Congress last week, in which he said that he hoped “Congress can get to my desk the Equality Act to protect LGBTQ Americans. To all transgender Americans watching at home, especially young people who are so brave, I want you to know your President has your back.”

Oh I’m sure that’s exactly where he is... at their back.

This irrational nonsense needs to be stopped.

We should always point out, that these ,”anti trans” sports laws, are not banning anything. They are not preventing people from competing in sports. They simply require one to compete based on your biological sex. Nobody is prevented from competition.

Biden knows the Supreme Court is feckless and will hide under their desks when faced with any clear moral choice.

A man with a penis in a skirt who wants to be called “she” is still a “him” with a penis in a skirt.

The headline is a complete misrepresentation of what’s occurring. Typical.

Transgender youth access to health care = mutilation, pain,lifelong hormones with many possible future health problems, irrevocable damage to body and mind = a vile form of child abuse.

especially young people who are so brave

So a dude putting on a dress is now bravery? Elevating a mental illness to hero worship is probably going just a bit far.

Biden and Dems are covering themselves to protect their campaign funding.
