It's Pride month -- I thought y'all hate symbolic gestures :sas2:

Yeah this is just a bunch of nothing for anyone that actually cares what’s in it.

He did this for black folks already.

Cracking down on conversion therapy is a great thing. It's an openly hateful practice, so I'm glad something is being done about it

Everybody gets Tangibles except Black Americans.

I doubt even Black Folks in the LGBTQ community would get those benefits either.

:mjpls:
There are no real tangibles. It's a bunch of words in support, acknowledgement and guidance to some federal departments. There's nothing there that can stop the wave of anti-LGBTQ laws being proposed across the country, because this is only an EO.


Over 300 anti-LGBTQI+ laws have been introduced in state legislatures over the past year, and many of them specifically target transgender children and their parents by banning access to medical care and support at school. President Biden is addressing these harmful, hateful, and discriminatory attacks head-on – not only by speaking up for America’s families, but taking action to stand up to the bullies targeting LGBTQI+ people.


To help support impacted families, President Biden is charging the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) with protecting LGBTQI+ children and families from attacks on their access to health care, and has instructed HHS to release new sample policies for states on how to expand access to comprehensive health care for LGBTQI+ patients. The President is also directing the Department of Education with addressing the impacts of state laws that target LGBTQI+ students, and has charged the department with releasing a sample school policy for achieving full inclusion for LGBTQI+ students.
