“For two years, the Trump-Pence Administration has relentlessly attacked LGBTQ people — including transgender servicemembers, children and workers. But today’s attack is one of their most heartless and dangerous yet. President Trump just stood in front of the White House and told millions of LGBTQ Americans that they should be denied lifesaving healthcare simply because of who they are or whom they love. That is immoral; it is heartless; it is un-American. Someone else’s personal beliefs should never be used as a license to discriminate. Period.”
