Litigation Content
Why this Matters:
Plaintiffs allege that the Executive Orders that target LGBTQI+ individuals violate the Due Process and Equal Protection Clause of the Fifth Amendment, the separation of powers principle, and the First Amendment. The Executive Orders state there are two genders and exclude transgender individuals from recognition, instructs that programs that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are illegal discrimination programs, and establishes penalties for contractors and grantees that engage in DEI practices, including termination of funding.
Potential Impact:
Silencing and punishing organizations that support LGBTQI+ communities and work to achieve health equity exacerbates health disparities in vulnerable communities.
