Several Republican-led states successfully sued to block the protections from taking effect in 2016. On Friday, the administration formally nullified them.

” to advance these aims, contending moral objections trump federal nondiscrimination protections and allow people to circumvent state civil rights laws.

Pertaining to abortion care, the 2016 nondiscrimination clause applied only when a health insurer or organization provided the same types of procedures for both abortions and nonabortion services. For example, a procedure called “dilation and evacuation” is used both in miscarriage care and abortion care. If a Catholic hospital provided this service for miscarriages, for example, it would also have to provide it for abortions.

The dispute is at the heart of a much larger national debate over what “sex” means: sex as identified by birth, gender identity, or other factors.

Remember when he said he’d be the best thing for the LGBT+ community? Yeah, another lie. Trump is terrified of POC, women, and LGBT people. Give him a reason to be.

Wait a minute... I thought 'all lives mattered'? 🤨

Fuck sake Trump 😑

Anybody really surprised by how low this piece of shit can go, cause I'm not smh

My god he is an evil fat man

Let's ignore for a moment the intentional disrespect for the LGBTQ+ community on the same day as Pulse and hijacking Juneteenth, is this really what needs the focus right now? Trying to reverse every Obama era policy because he hurt your feelings?

Evil. That's the only word I can think of at the moment to describe Trump. America you need to get rid of this evil disease, you won't survive another 4 years of it. VoteTrumpOut TrumpOut2020

Oh What a surprise.

he is so sick

If these healthcare workers are doing their job correctly they shouldn't care about the identity of the patient they would take care of them regardless.

I thought he said he, 'Loved the LGBTQRSTLME'... and the LGBTQ were 'BIG FANS' of his...... what a Moron... lol... BUNKERBITCH

I just wonder what took BUNKERPRESIDENT so long.
