The Trump administration made headlines recently when they pushed to rollback health care protections for transgender individuals, even as the Supreme Court ruled that sex includes sexual orientation and gender identity, and discrimination based on this is illegal when it comes to employment specifically. If these rules aren't withdrawn it could set off a chain of lawsuits. In addition to this, the Trump administration is working on rules that could make it easier for adoption and foster agencies to refuse to work with same-sex couples. The Biden campaign is taking the opposite approach with no policies stated yet, but fully supporting LBGTQ+ rights. This includes access to health care (along with nondiscrimination for coverage or treatment through the ACA) and providing the ability to build and start a family.
