LGBTQ groups call for “more effort” to protect their rights

LGBTQ rights groups from the Democratic Party require “more effort” to protect the rights of gay and transgender Americans in the face of threats from the Trump administration and an increased division within the party on issues such as sexually transformed athletes in school sport.

“With the increase in frequency and intensity, the LGBTQ+ community is fundamentally targeted as well as the speech, in the legislative campaigns, and the congressional and from each corner of the Trump administration,” the leaders of the national and state calling groups in the two states wrote in a letter to the National Democratic Committee.

A set of executive orders signed by President Trump has been targeting since his return to his post in January, explicitly transformed people, including those that completely deprive the identities of transgender people. Other orders, to which federal agencies have moved since then to enforce them, aim to prevent people from being converted frankly in the army, prohibiting athletes who crossed from participating in girls and women sports, restricting access to accurate identity documents and reducing federal support for care for young people.

Signs have been cleaned to transgender people and historical figures since January from government websites, including the national monument pages in New York. The Associated Press reported last week that the references to the Enola Gay plane that dropped the atomic bomb on Japan were marked to remove defensive web sites, apparently because its name includes the word “gay”.

At the state level, lawmakers have already submitted more than 450 laws that threaten the decline in LGBTQ rights, according to the American Civil Liberties Union. Last month, the state of Iowa became the first country to strike protection to combat discrimination for sexually transformed individuals from the Civil Rights Law, and many countries led by the Republican Party are considering decisions calling for the Supreme Court to reconsider its 2015 teacher’s ruling regarding equality of marriage.

“We realize and appreciate those efforts,” wrote the leaders of the group, including the human rights campaign, Glaad and Advocates. But party leaders should do more. “

They added: “Some have suggested a strategy to overcome: that the settlement with a little discrimination against its misunderstanding segment in particular and urgent from our society can satisfy the opponents of equality.” “We have fought the same opponents for decades, in the role of the state, in Congress, and in the ballot box, and we can say unambiguously that this strategy will not succeed.”

Some Democrats oppose the broad party’s support for transgendering rights in the wake of the November elections, and it appears to be an increasingly open share on the efforts made to ban sexually transgender athletes of girls and women – an issue at the forefront of Trump’s campaigns and the Republic 2024.

Democratic actors Tom Suzizi (New York) and Seth Molton (Massachusetts) launched their party about the issue in the days after the elections, and told the New York Times in separate interviews that the athletes should not be allowed to compete for female sports teams. In January, actors Vicente Gonzalez and Henry Coellar, both of them from Texas, were the only Democrats who stood on Republicans to vote to pass legislation to ban sports students passing through sports girls and women.

Ultimately, Democrats in the Senate thwarted.

In his first episode of his podcast last week, California Governor Gavin New Roosome (D), a potential competitor for democratic presidential nomination in 2028, said he agreed with conservative and suspended activist Charlie Kerk that sexual athletes participating in girls and women sports are “very painful”.

The New York Times poll/Epsus found that 79 percent of Americans included in the poll believe that the converted athletes should not be allowed to participate in women’s sports, and a recent survey of the Pew Research Center has found that Americans had grown more supportive of policies that restrict the rights in general.

However, more than half of the Americans in the same survey said that they support the policies that protect the transgender people from discrimination in jobs, housing and public spaces.

“We can admit that the Americans in good faith, including our political leaders, do not always have a complete understanding of the people who differ from them, and the LGBTQ community is not exempt,” said LGBTQ leaders in Monday. “It is okay to be a person, and he has good intentions, he does not have all the answers-and we are here to provide support as political leaders and the public comes to a conversation that seeks to understand our society better. But it is unacceptable to organizations that were designed below-represent millions of Americans throughout the country-prominent democrats to give a cover to anti-gay pilgrims.”

They wrote: “The future of the Democratic Party must be the one who believes in civil rights and freedoms for all, and it appears to societies that are the goal of wrong, hatred and bullying information from extremist actors.”
