NEW: The Trump admin. has finalized its rollback of protections against gender identity discrimination in health care regulated by the Affordable Care Act.

Health and Human Services argues the rule will save taxpayers"$2.9 billion in undue and ineffective regulatory burdens over five years," according to its statement.

Candace Bond-Theriault, the group's senior policy counsel, said in a statement,"Whether it be from the COVID-19 pandemic or as a result of the police brutality we’ve seen on full display over the last few weeks, people across the country are suffering and in pain. Mara Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, said in a statement,"Even as the death toll and catastrophe of the COVID-19 pandemic grows and people take to the streets, the Trump administration remains focused on denying equal access to health care to transgender people."

If we beleive in gender equality why do we need gender protection? For me LGBTQ is as good as MALE & FEMALE and shouldn't need any protection unless they have become a breed of eternal babies TrumpIsMyPresident

He is such an evil smalllittle man. VoteTrumpOut

MeetThePress Actually, this simplifies to provide protection for anyone with a penis or a vagina regardless of sexual orientation.

News4SA Who is next...Mexicans are being shipped back to Mexico, Blacks are being shot and killed, Chinese and Muslims have been under attack. Let’s make America only White and Great Again, shall we

Well they started construction on Trumps Presidential library this morning & are done already. They just put some pop-up & 'choose your own adventure' books behind a McDonalds in a Manhattan alley.

You don't want a Nazi doctor , if he or she doesn't wish to treat you you're better off with a real doctor !

Now, in an election year... don’t fall for it people

Our country’s flag should just be a bible surrounded by 13 sheriff’s stars on a white background. 😡

News4SA Some things you need to pay for yourself. There are people who can't afford medical care and these narcissistic freaks are butt hurt because they do not get free ride on their elective medical care. Who cares?

Turn the record player on, So we'll meet this challenge together.. testing RT North debate They'd say to me all the time, Uncle Joe. I didn't like the bill..

Anything that's implemented to help people out of decency is removed by Trump out of spite. Anything. Doesn't matter what it is.

MeetThePress End the war women!!! The greatest offense of all is stealing the meaning and identity of women.

Men are not women.

Why does someone's sexuality bother some people so much when they are not bothered by seeing people starving, homeless, in pain, lonely, in prison, abused & jobless?

being gay is not a good thing

Continuing to do as much damage as possible between now and his exit in November.

Back to actual Science. Good

A prison sentence should not afford free gender reassignment surgeries. Nice win by the Trump Administration, again!

too much power for dems or deplorables

This was an unnecessary, disgraceful and inhumane decision.

Why, why would anyone vote to expand discrimination?

They have to treat people based on biology...

GOOD AND TO THE BLM MORONS NewsBusters newsbusters · 39m DUMMIES: A status of Matthias Baldwin, an abolitionist and supporter of black voting rights, was defaced by protesters in Philadelphia.

Trump has moved us back to the 50’s and 60’s. Removing equal rights, removing environmental protection. Removing animal protection. A complete disaster

A cruel act by cruel people who revel in their cruelty

Wonder if Caitlyn Jenner can have a few words with her golf buddy?

Only white men can have decent healthcare 🙄🙄🙄 BEYOND tone deaf!!!

The headline is a complete lie. This was never included in the ACA.

Why don't realDonaldTrumo work for black Americans which consider their country above every thing and love it...

Why is it that historically and cultural we are the only people on earth who can’t figure out if your a boy or girl. Even ‘underdeveloped’ nations know the difference. I guess we’re ‘undeveloped’.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said in a statement it would recognize 'sex discrimination according to the plain meaning of the word 'sex' as male or female and as determined by biology.' BECAUSE SCIENCE

Good. These aren’t needed. Everyone will still get care from the doctors.

Of course he did.

How did the Ts become part of the gay community? I feel bad that they think they’re a different sex and want to help them with mental help rather than sex changes. 40% of people with Gender Dysphoria commit suicide. It’s like depression times 1000!!

Racist and Prejudice too, What a President

Try again. It stopped protections of a gender that doesn’t exist. God wouldn’t condone it nor should we.

F A K E N E W S

because health care is only for white and wealthy? just curious

Imagine being a Christian doctor and being forced to mutilate the genitals of a confused teenager.

Mary Beth Waddellm dress warm for your trip to the Hague in 2021. Because the Family Research Center will be named in our complaint to the IntlCrimCourt

In other words, policy conforms to science. Why do you hate science?

Because they are still protected by other laws, but we can't mention that because NBC is the media arm of the democratic party. 🙄

120,045

Good

They will still get the necessary medical care they need. Nothing to see here.

Disgusting

Actually, it levels the playing field so all will get equal care without special treatment for particular groups or subgroups. Fair is fair

We will undo his damage REALLY SOON!!!!

GOP is not the party of the people. They've made realDonaldTrump their poster boy. They need to go before they kill more of our citizens. VOTE in NOVEMBER!

Finally!!!! There are only 2 genders, male and female!

Thank god

And stilllllll the president of United States!!! Donald Trump

you mean that thing that allowed MEN to say that they are a woman even though they are clearly a MAN?

A reminder this reversal allows doctors to discriminate against ALL lgbt people. Of you thought it was just trans people and hopped on here to celebrate, you're being being homophobic and biophobia by not condemning it 🖤

MMortAH So are we gonna Riot again or?

PROBLEM: One small step for a man...a giant leap backwards you'll find. SOLUTION: November election. ALTERNATIVE: have someone in power who legitimises every transphobic excretion in this thread. REALITY CHECK: That promise of 'Make America GREAT AGAIN?'...

There will be one hell of a party when the USA decides to VoteOutHate in November VoteTrumpOut VoteTrumpOut2020

well id better inform my family that we'll have to get my service dog before this is active, god only knows if theyll even let me have one after this

He has been reading a certain author's tweets.. Trump TransWomenareWomen TransRightsAreHumanRights

Gays for trump feels sick right now but blacks for trumps are like nothing to do with us 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 What if you are next?

There is no depth of hatred this administration will not stoop to. UglyPresident VoteOutHate RemoveTrumpNow

Well joe will put it back so we shouldn’t worry !!

What a shity thing to do.

Good for our President.

History books refer to people like William the Conqueror, Edward the Confessor, Ethelred the Unready etc. In 1000 years will history remember 45 as Donald the Deranged or Donald the completely insane? Donald the absolute spanner? The possibilities are endless.

Trump is a disgusting human being

You mean they will be treated on the basis of biological reality instead? How terrible that must be. If gender identity had any basis in reality they should be able to ID their way out of sex based illnesses anyway by becoming the other sex.

🍊(45) is the REAL ENEMY of the ppl! 🍊 is to BLAME for ALL the DESTRUCTION/CRISES in the U.S. (SPREAD of CORONA, RACISM, job loss,etc)! REMEMBER Election Day Nov 2020 (IF this country still exists in November)! TODAY..FOCUS ALL of your energy/efforts to DEFEAT THE ENEMY... 🍊!

مفتّح

Solution: you need to do all you can to get him out of the White House in the November election. If you want someone in power who legitimises every cerebrally challenged transphobic moron in this thread, then re-elect him. As for his 'Make America GREAT AGAIN'?...

Who here is really shocked? 🙄

& Gays for Trump is trending on Twitter

i.n.s.i.p.i.d. Is the best way to describe trump

There was absolutely no reason for this. Just petty assholery.

fakenewsmsnbc

That could indeed become a challenge...

My darkest dream came true... If Trump delegalizes Porn I'm gonna vote for Binden and move to China!

Brutal AF 🤡 move 🤦‍♂️

About time nice one realDonaldTrump

bruh

This is so sad 2020 just gets worst and worst

Oboma are should have been killed three years ago. We elected enough people who had promised that when running. They let us down badly.

All the funds spent on these STUPID flags & crosswalks could be better spent on homelessness, veterans affairs....ANYTHING but pandering to a minority group. Equality, NOT special.

Next no right for women or black, the Irish will follow and then you have dictatorship

Back to square one. So much for progress. Shameful.

Good

Good. Insane how black-Americans bled and died for Civil Rights to be instituted yet it mostly benefits largely irrelevant groups (in the formation of the law) LGBTQ+, immigrants , aliens etc . Now LGBT folks talking about ''..this effects black people too''.....nah it dont.

its like america is moving backwards and not forwards -_-

Hi

That's it I'm voting BIDEN2020. Gotta get rid of Trump.

Aside from the obviously bigoted nature of this decision, justifying discrimination on the basis of economics is a very dangerous journey to embark on. Heading back to the dark ages

Tex_968 The ACA is a failure

I thought I would mention, MSNBC is NOT a reliable news source. They used a clip from the World War Z trailer in one of their broadcasts. Don't trust anything this 'source' states.

Excellent.

FakeNews EnemyOfThePeople

Not like the Health System does shit anyways .

The funny part in comments, its the women making bad comments. I really don't care cause it's about healthcare an such, if they need it then they need it

Considering you guys lie about everything ill take this with a MINE of salt!

depression

Good! Insurance companies should not have to pay for elective transgender surgeries, etc.

'means insurance policies and health care regulated under the Obama-era Affordable Care Act can deny services to transgender people. HHS said it is reverting to a time when the government 'declined to recognize sexual orientation as a protected category under the ACA.'' — MSNBC

Fantastic!

Does this have anything to do with jk Rowling? Odd.

Of course he's a bigot

they just stopped assassinating presidents huh?

It was cool, until they started confusing Toddlers. SaveTheChildren

And the GOP platform for 2020 wants a congressional amendment banning same sex marriage, protections for conversion therapy and he already removed discrimination protections.

Wow. He really is cruel through and through.

Get out and vote ppl. Register to vote now!

Great, this is great news, and how it should be thank you realDonaldTrump Like everything this was a hidden abuse of money & costs to the taxpayer that never should have been allowed. End Obamacare

Open your eyes- vote !!!!!!

This would be a good time for Lady G to emerge.

I’m dumb can someone explain this to me?

Disgusting

What a great president we have ... MAGA

Democrats just trying to get the gay vote now

Yeah, that seems consistent with what this administration stands for.

he needs to rot in hell

WHAT THE FUCK

'HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

Good news

Thank god I live in Canada

TRUMP 2020

💥Hate to break it to everyone there is just male and female PERÏOD!💥

I hate everything about this administration and party. I just do.

Sweet November hurry hurry

If MLK tried to give the I have a dream speech at a college campus today, asking people to judge character and not skin color. They'd call him a Nazi, pull the fire alarm, and violently attack him. etc

To add insult to injury, Trump will now claim he has done more for the LGBTQ community than any other president. What an asshole!

My Aunt was transgender and died in pain, in her own filth from metastatic prostate cancer because she had been mistreated by the healthcare system in the past. This isn't rare and going to get worse. Trump administration has no decency or shame.

Isn't it true that the federal courts have actually found those provisions not legal? The Trump admin is just doing what the courts require?

죄의 삯은 사망입니다. 오직 예수님만이 우리의 구원자이십니다

I am not a person that is LGBTQ I support the LGBTQ Community: HumanRights CivilRights EqualRights Veterans' Rights You don't have to be a person that is LGBTQ to be a supporter, you just have to be Human.

Why doesn't anybody stop him? He is so evil.

Just more hate! He is trying his best to normalize hate and discrimination!

and during PrideMonth FUCKTRUMP NotMyPresident

Where are the girl from BLM remember you receive$133 million a year in endowments and grants to fight against black gay and trans issues. Time to come out of your mansions and march... Oh yeah you just collect the money and others do it for you Donors know where your$$$$ is going

So does this mean they won't pay to cut your penis off if you want to dress like a female?

Despicable

Good

Disgusting! realDonaldTrump you're a real piece of work.

VoteBlue✌🏼💙2020 No more clowns🤡🤡

NBC Admits Hillary Clinton Protected Pedophile Rings Then, they protected pedophile protector & tried to elect her President...

And on that note you can wave goodbye to his orange ass! He's done🔥

trump and his administration are sickening

VOTE

An entire article with no information about what 'protections' are being curtailed, while simultaneously seeming to insinuate that people will be refused care in hospitals, and be left to die in the hallways of emergency rooms. Disingenuous much?

It wasn't affordable. They said it would never be mandatory. It was. Federal FTC false advertising crime.

That’s word salad for “Sex change operations are no longer covered”.

And they finalized it during pride month of all possible times. This is def not a coincidence. Just like the Tulsa rally they’re holding, this sends a message to us all that the lgbt community deserves no protections at all

Trump just hates humans.

Because *this will reinvigorate his campaign.

All taxpayers don't get the same rights? Something's not white here.

You’re either a man or woman. That’s science, right?

NBC treats their viewers like bitches, where do you get your news? Just saying

We've Allowed Politicians To Judge Themselves, Decide How Much To Pay Themselves & Run Our Entire Country With Absolutely Zero Oversight Into There Actions! They've Become Untouchable. So Instead Of 1 King, We Have 100's Of Them Acting Like Kids Without Parents! This Must Stop!

During Pride Month. On the anniversary of the Pulse nightclub massacre. Totally on-brand for this administration.

What else is left from Obama's administration?

For what reason? Bigotry?

Of course they did.

Trump admin proposal would make it harder for migrants to claim asylum'The proposed rule is literally the kitchen sink of asylum bans and will end any notion of asylum that still remains,' said an immigration lawyer. It will be undone in January 2021 Good Ah, excellent. Asylum is ludicrous anyways, effectively a screw you to people immigrating on merit in favor of 'humanitarian' optics for generally low skill people who'd never make the cut to begin with.
