Trump and Harris: Where do they stand? LGBTQ+ Rights

Context

LGBTQ+ Rights: Harris

Harris has supported protections for the LGBTQ+ community, including supporting bills like the Equality Act, which aims to protect LGBTQ+ people from discrimination.

She has also long supported transgender rights, earning her praise from LGBTQ+ advocates during her time as district attorney in San Francisco.

In a speech she gave on Trans Visibility Day, she told the community “We see you. We stand with you. We won’t stop fighting for you."

Context

LGBTQ+ Rights: Trump

As President, Trump dismantled protections for the LGBTQ+ community and placed restrictions on transgender service members.

He opposed the Biden administration’s Title IX expansion, which increased protections for the LGBTQ+ community.

Trump has also said he will use his presidential power to stop gender-affirming care for minors and vowed to introduce a bill “prohibiting child sexual mutilation in all 50 states."
