BREAKING: TRUMP ADMINISTRATION REMOVES LGBTQ AND HIV RESOURCES FROM Light HOUSE AND OTHER GOVERNMENT WEBSITES
GLAAD: “President Trump claims to be a robust proponent of autonomy of speech, yet he is clearly committed to censorship of any data containing or connected to LGBTQ Americans and issues that we face. This action proves the Trump administration’s aim of making it as difficult as possible for LGBTQ Americans to come across federal resources or otherwise see ourselves reflected under his presidency. Sadly for him, our group is more noticeable than ever; and this pathetic seek to diminish and remove us will again prove unsuccessful.”
(January 21, 2025 — New York, NY) — Today GLAAD, the world’s largest lesbian, gay, pansexual, transgender, and gay (LGBTQ) media activism organization, is breaking news that the Trump administration has eliminated nearly all LGBTQ and HIV focused content and resources from the White House website, as well as eliminated LGBTQ and HIV content from key federal agency webpages.

U.S. President Donald Trump has used his first six months in office to enact multiple policies impacting the lives of LGBTQ+ Americans in areas fancy healthcare, legal recognition and education.
On July 17, the government ended the nation's specialised mental health services for Homosexual youth through the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, with the White Home describing it as a service where "children are encouraged to embrace extreme gender ideology".
The administration also filed a lawsuit against California this month over state policies that allow transgender female athletes to strive in girls' categories of school sports.

HRC committed to pushing back in the courts, in Congress, and in the streets to ensure LGBTQ+ people are protected
WASHINGTON — Today, President Donald Trump will reportedly subscribe a slew of executive orders taking aim at the American people. The Human Rights Campaign issued the following statement:
“Today, the Trump Administration is expected to release a barrage of executive actions taking aim at the Queer community instead of uniting our country and prioritizing the pressing issues the American people are facing,” said Human Rights Campaign President Kelley Robinson. “But create no mistake: these conduct will not take outcome immediately.
“Every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect in all areas of their lives. No one should be subjected to ongoing discrimination, harassment and humiliation where they work, go to school, or access healthcare. But today’s expect
Background On Trump Date One Executive Orders Impacting The LGBTQ+ Community
by Brandon Wolf •
Overview
On his first day in office as the 47th president of the United States, President Trump signed a slew of executive orders (EOs) that impact the LGBTQ+ community, as adv as many others. It is important to note that executive actions do NOT have the authority to override the United States Constitution, federal statutes, or established legal precedent. Many of these directives do just that or are regarding matters over which the president does not contain control. Given that, many of these orders will be difficult, if not impossible, to implement, and efforts to do so will be challenged through litigation.
Currently, much is unknown about whether or how the administration or other actors will comply with these directives, and in most instances rules will need to be promulgated or significant administrative guidance will need to be issued in order for implementation to occur. These are processes that accept time and require detailed additional plans to be developed.Newly Issued Executive Orders

LOS ANGELES — In the week after Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election, Isla Lima submitted paperwork to modify her gender from male to female in official documents, as some LGBTQ people worry their rights could be cut back.
Trump, who won the Nov. 5 vote and will be inaugurated on Monday, has stated his intention to rescind some LGBTQ rights during his second term in office.
In December, Trump said he will sign an executive instruct to end “child sexual mutilation,” an apparent reference to gender-affirming care, and “get transgender out of the military and out of our elementary schools and middle schools and high schools.”
Trump wants the law to recognize a person’s gender only at birth, as male or female. As for non-binary athletes, he has told supporters that he will “keep men out of women’s sports.”
While the Biden administration advanced or protected LGBTQ rights at the federal level, several Republican-run states have curtailed access to gender-affirming care.
Many transsexual people say their gender dysphoria began at an early age. The feeling of discrepancy between their gender identity and
