HHS will enforce sex discrimination protections 'according to the plain meaning of the word 'sex' as male or female and as determined by biology.' This rewrites an Obama-era regulation that sought a broader understanding shaped by one's internal sense.

WASHINGTON — In a move applauded by President Donald Trump’s conservative religious base, his administration on Friday finalized a rule that overturns Obama-era protections for transgender people against sex discrimination in health care.

But conservatives say the Obama administration exceeded its legal authority in broadly interpreting gender.Behind the dispute over legal rights is a medically recognized condition called “gender dysphoria” – discomfort or distress caused by a discrepancy between the gender that a person identifies as and the gender at birth. Consequences can include severe depression.

The ACLU says it has already moved to try to prevent the rollback of protections for transgender people.

No surprise there from a Racist Commander in chief undoing all Obama'sgood work.

The medical community takes an oath to help patients. Some, not all, will pick and choose which humans to assist, based on a patient’s overall identity, which includes being LGBTQ+, as well as the race and age of individuals. This is sad but a fact, yet thankfully not nationwide.

Any LGBTQ person who voted for Trump was a fool. At the 2016 Republican Convention he promised to protect your rights...and you believed him.

WHY would you use the rainbow lit photo of the WH when Trump approved not protecting transgender ppl from discrimination for health care?

Imperialism is still alive and well in the Religious Right. Forever obsessed with controlling everything and everyone according to their own beliefs. No better than when they forced indigenous children to become “white” and “Christian”. Shameful.

Science.

Please do not confuse sex and gender.

Thank goodness. This is how it should be. One grows tried of the favoritism and pc crap certain people shove down our throats.

Oh nice.

Nowhere in this article does it mention that the Obama regulation was legally unenforceable which was the primary reason for its reversal

Good

Good! These days you can just say you want to be a man or woman and get out of so many things. I’m glad Trump closed that loophole

Hateful

This keeps doctors and nurses from having to perform abortions if they are opposed to them.
