GAY AND UNR ATTACK
Photo Illtratn by The Daily Beast/GettyAll over the untry the backlash to LGBT rights is gettg bolr—more outrageo and more vrlic—while anti-LGBT evangelil lears, workg wh the base of the GOP, ntue their attempts to disguise a relig csa agast fellow Amerins as as stggle for “relig liberty.” The tensy unrsr why the Equaly Act, re-troduced the Hoe of Reprentativ two weeks ago and which would protect LGBT people agast discrimatn employment, hog and public acmodatns unr the 1964 Civil Rights Act, is so urgently need. That’s te even if the bill, gettg s first-ever hearg the Hoe Judiciary Commtee Tuday, will have an arduo path the Republin-ntrolled Kansas, Republin lawmakers, backed by evangelil Christian lears, troduced two bizarre but nohels horrendo bills earlier this bill, siar to bills troduced Wyomg and South Carola last year, seeks to fe same-sex marriag as “parody marriag,” and fe gay and transgenr inti as “mythology,” part of a “relign of secular humanism” that vlat the Constutn’s Establishment Clse. The other bill stat that same-sex marriag “ero muny standards of cency, unlike secular marriage between a man and a woman.”Tennsee Republins are phg the odly-tled Natural Marriage Defense Act, troduced Febary, which would prohib the state om regnizg urt cisns that affirm unns between people of the same genr. In Wt Virgia a few weeks ago, a Republin legislator, a repugnant statement, pared LGBT people to the KKK, while a group of LGBT youth Wyomg allege that a GOP legislator stunned them Febary when they vised her office and she told them that homosexualy was parable to btialy and pedophilia. (The legislator later nied makg the statements.) The outbursts aren’t jt happeng red state Ameri: In New York Cy, Bronx Cy Councilman Rubén Diaz Sr., a reference to the Council Speaker Corey Johnson, who is gay, warned that Cy Hall is “ntrolled by the homosexual muny.” Anti-LGBT forc, like many on the right, are clearly feelg energized. They’d been alt a setback by the Supreme Court’s Obergefell marriage equaly lg 2015. But even before that they’d been planng and plottg what they would do if they lost, lookg to the urts to try dimish marriage equaly and LGBT rights, as they have done on abortn rights, chippg away at Roe v. Wa over a perd of many they’ve now been electrified by Print Donald Tmp, whose admistratn has moved to roll back LGBT rights so many areas. From backg challeng to lower urt lgs that favored LGBT rights and puttg dozens of judg wh alarmg rerds of hostily to LGBT rights on the feral bench, to banng transgenr people om the ary and allowg relig exemptns to the Obama admistratn’s ban on discrimatn agast LGBT people among feral ntractors, Tmp has alt jarrg blows to opposed to LGBT rights have also been embolned by a Supreme Court that has lurched to the far right, as the prev swg vote, Jtice Anthony Kennedy, a lear on the high urt on LGBT rights, was replaced by Tmp wh Brett Kavangh.Kavangh was Whe Hoe staff secretary unr Print Gee W. Bh as the print promoted a feral marriage amendment that would have banned same-sex marriage the Constutn. Support for Tmp among Christian evangelils, while dippg a b at tim, remas very strong. They’re satisfied wh the admistratn’s often d language on issu related to LGBT rights—as long as Tmp and his admistratn get them rults and falsely hold them up as the actual victims of discrimatn. In that ve, at the annual Conservative Polil Actn Conference last month, Vice Print Mike Pence stck back at crics of his wife, Karen, who took a job at a Christian evangelil school Virgia that discrimat agast LGBT stunts and faculty, banng them and emg their very inti as “moral misnduct.” (Virgia is one of 28 stat that offer no statewi protectns agast discrimatn employment, hog and public acmodatns on the basis of sexual orientatn and genr inty.) “Freedom of relign is unr attack our untry,” Pence said, to thunro applse. “My own fay recently me unr attack jt bee my wife Karen went back to teach art to children at a Christian school. Unr this print and this admistratn, we will always stand wh people of fah.”Pence didn’t utter the words “gay” or “transgenr” but that wasn’t necsary for the anti-LGBT nservativ who knew exactly what he was talkg about. And the approach appears to pay off wh another part of the Tmp base as well. Bent Kffman, vice print of New York Universy’s College Republins, told me after exg the speech that he supported marriage equaly and wasn’t “very socially nservative.” Nohels, he “really liked” Pence’s ments.“If Mike Pence and his program was issue No. 1, targetg gay people, that would be a problem for me,” he said an terview broadst on my rad program, apparently unaware of how pervasively the Tmp admistratn has ed targeted LGBT ;s for that reason that the Equaly Act is val. In polls the majory of Amerins support protectg LGBT people om discrimatn, while a majory also actually believe LGBT people are already protected. Even if the bill, overwhelmgly supportg the Democratic-ntrolled Hoe, won’t get passed the current Senate—or even get a vote—the bate and discsn about will te the Amerin people further and help advot move forward the ;s ltle time to lose. Several s the feral urts challengg state laws protectg LGBT people uld reach the Supreme Court days, weeks or months. The lgs uld have a profound effect on rights employment and public acmodatns. On the very day that Kavangh was nfirmed by the Senate last October, the Hoton-based U.S. Pastor Council, reprentg 25 church, filed su feral urt Texas, claimg the cy of At’s anti-discrimatn law protectg LGBT people vlated their relig eedom. Several days later, another nservative Christian group, filed a siar lawsu state urt Texas. Those who oppose LGBT equaly are g the urts to thwart , a reversal of the role the urts played to expand LGBT rights. And Tmp's urt-packg plays to their not only unrsr why protectg LGBT people wh the 1964 Civil Rights Act is ccial, but ultimately how dangero will be for LGBT rights if Tmp is re-elected and ntu to stall more anti-LGBT judg on the feral judiciary, cludg the Supreme Court.
