Biden Signs Executive Order Banning Workplace Discrimination against LGBT People

Post by MotorCityRadioFreak » Wed Jan 20, 2021 11:07 pm

It's only day one, and Biden has already issue an executive order prohibiting discrimination against LGBT people in the workplace. Off to a roaring start.

This is a good victory for civil rights and a step in the right direction, but I'm uneasy with the notion of binding protections against discrimination with an executive order. This opens the door for yet another unilateral reversal with a future administration. Hopefully these protections can be held more firmly via the legislative branch.


I'm here for a good, hearty debate, to agree and disagree respectfully, and commiserate on the current state of terrestrial radio.

I thought you hated executive orders, bashing Trump when he issued them. Biden issued at least three in less than twelve hours (it may be more, I haven’t checked this morning).

Be careful going to that website you linked, Freak.
My Black Ice Defender had some issues with it.
That site may be a little more intrusive than you think.

Not when it is restoring what was the law of the land before Trump.

He signed fifteen of them on day one.

Has anyone called him a dictator yet?


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Well let's see, Trump spent a majority of his first year trying to undo everything that Obama had created, Joe Biden is just putting things back.

As expected, the far lefties here think it’s OK when Biden does it, but not Trump. Hypocrites.

For the record, I don’t like them by any President. This is not what the founders had in mind when they put that power in the Constitution.

Why not go through Congress then? That’s how it is supposed to be done.

Did you happen to notice the senate thanks to Mitch McConnell hasn’t been able to get anything done in years? That’s why not go through congress. Even then with every president doing executive orders anyways it’s about the content therein. So far Biden has signed sensible orders. Trump wouldn’t know one of those if it hit him in the face.
