  • Some New Yorkers take issue with President Trump's rollback of transgender protections and federal DEI programs.

The article from MSN discusses the backlash against former President Donald Trump's policies that rolled back protections for transgender individuals and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs in federal agencies. In New York, these actions have drawn significant criticism from various community members and activists. Trump's administration had rescinded guidelines that allowed transgender students to use bathrooms corresponding to their gender identity and eliminated DEI training in federal workplaces, arguing these measures were unnecessary or burdensome. Critics argue that these rollbacks not only undermine the rights and safety of transgender people but also hinder efforts to promote inclusivity and address systemic inequalities within government operations. The article highlights the sentiments of New Yorkers who feel these policies are regressive and detrimental to social progress.
