Protections for L.G.B.T. Workers Will Remain Under Trump
#1
So, there's this...

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/30/us/po...rkers.html

Quote:The White House said on Monday that President Trump would leave in place a 2014 Obama administration order that created new workplace protections for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people.

In a statement issued in response to growing questions about whether Mr. Trump would reverse the Obama order, the White House said the president was proud to embrace gay rights.

“President Trump continues to be respectful and supportive of L.G.B.T.Q. rights, just as he was throughout the election,” the statement said. “The president is proud to have been the first ever G.O.P. nominee to mention the L.G.B.T.Q. community in his nomination acceptance speech, pledging then to protect the community from violence and oppression.”

The decision to keep the order, the statement added, was Mr. Trump’s. It uses stronger language than any Republican president has before in favor of equal legal protections for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, though that is not likely to quiet Mr. Trump’s critics on the left.

Well let's hope so. Of course there is some fear mongering from the left side claiming that Trump's next executive order (which of course isn't public information) will be dealing with LGBT and adoption...and the prohibiting of it. Of course no way to know until it happens (hopefully not). I mean yeah I'm single and all that jazz but I would like to at some point have kids...which means adopting most likely.
