Since the moment he walked into the White House, Donald Trump has attacked the progress we have made toward full equality for the LGBTQ community and undermined the rights of countless Americans. HRC has launched a new website &#8212;<a href=\"http:\/\/hrc.org\/trump\" target=\"_blank\"> HRC.org\/Trump<\/a> &#8212; chronicling the Trump Administration\u2019s unprecedented attacks against the LGBTQ community. The timeline, which will continue to be updated, spotlights efforts to undermine the LGBTQ community, from rescinding guidelines protecting transgender students and appointing Jeff Sessions to the nation\u2019s highest law enforcement post, to threatening a \u201clicense to discriminate\u201d Executive Order and erasing LGBTQ people in federal data gathering. The timeline also highlights how the community is fighting back.
