Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell, as part of a coalition of 18 attorneys general, filed an amicus brief supporting a legal challenge to President Trump’s Executive Orders targeting diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility initiatives and programs that support transgender individuals.
“Organizations that provide life-saving services to our transgender residents and initiatives centered around diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility play vital roles in our communities. Attacking this work is not only unlawful, but it also harms our state, communities, and residents,” said AG Campbell. “The President does not have the authority to arbitrarily and categorically shut down lawful programs simply because he dislikes them.”
