Trump Administration Signals That It’ll Look the Other Way on LGBTQ Discrimination

A new directive from the Department of Labor encourages the government to allow federal contractors to discriminate against LGBTQ people more. This past Friday, the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) at the Department of Labor issued a directive that asked investigators to take religious exemptions into account. While the directive doesn’t overturn the executive order that bans discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity among federal contractors, it encourages the people who enforce the ban on discrimination to consider the “religious freedom” of federal contractors.
