Equality Act backers undeterred by lack of progress three years later

Summary
2021 started as a banner year for LGBTQ rights. In January, newly-inaugurated President Joe Biden signed a pair of executive orders to combat discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity and reverse a ban on transgender individuals serving in the military that was instituted by his predecessor, former President Donald Trump. The same month, the Labor Department suspended another Trump-era policy barring federal agencies and government contractors from providing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) training, and the following month, on Feb. 25, the House of Representatives passed the Equality Act for just the second time in the bill’s 50-year history.
