Biden will reinstate rule protecting transgender students’ use of bathrooms on day one (...and there is more!)

Fox News  reports that President-elect Biden is prepared to sign nearly a dozen executive orders on his first day in the Oval Office, one of them will be to reinstate a federal guidance that is to protect trans students in public schools.

This means that trans teens will be allowed  to use bathrooms, locker rooms and other school facilities matching their gender identity.

After Trump revoked these “Title IX protections,” it has been left to states to make their own rules on the issue.

Biden is expected to revoke  all  the anti-LGBTQA regulations of the Trump-administration.

Biden’s site, jobiden.com, says this about trans people:

Donald Trump and Mike Pence have given hate against LGBTQ+ individuals safe harbor and rolled back critical protections for the LGBTQ+ community. 

By blocking the ability of transgender individuals to openly serve their country, denying LGBTQ+ people access to critical health care, proposing policies allowing federally funded homeless shelters to turn away transgender people and federally funded adoption agencies to reject same-sex couples, and failing to address the epidemic of violence against transgender people—particularly transgender women of color—the Trump-Pence Administration has led a systematic effort to undo the progress President Obama and Vice President Biden made. 

The Biden administration promises to:

Reaffirm that the Civil Rights Act prohibits employment discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. 

Support transgender and non-binary people in the workforce.

Stop employment discrimination in the federal government.

Reverse the transgender military ban.

End the misuse of broad exemptions to discriminate.

Affirm one’s gender marker and expand access to accurate identification documents.

Guarantee transgender students have access to facilities based on their gender identity.

Protect LGBTQ+ students from sexual assault, harassment, and bullying.

Work to end suicide among young LGBTQ+ individuals.

Combat the epidemic of violence against transgender women of color.

Ban so-called “conversion therapy.

Expand mental health and suicide prevention services for LGBTQ+ individuals.

Increase safety for incarcerated transgender individuals. 

Advance an inclusive human rights agenda that promotes LGBTQ+ rights by integrating them within a broad human rights agenda.

…and more (details here).

Stream art from @marblecantus Pokemon White Nuzlocke randomizer stream. It’s a bit unfinished because I was super tired, but I think it doesn’t look too bad
