The Trump administration has scrapped more than $800 million worth of research into the health of LGBTQ people, abandoning studies of cancers and viruses that tend to affect members of sexual minority groups, according to an analysis of federal data by The New York Times.

Trump Administration Slashes Research Into L.G.B.T.Q. Health
Nearly half of the N.I.H. grants canceled through early May — together worth more than $800 million — addressed the health of sexual and gender minority groups, The Times found.

Das ausências completas sobre a população LGBTQIA+, à reposição do guia "Direito a SER nas Escolas", passando pela inclusão da identidade de Género na Constituição, as propostas são espelho dos próprios partidos. Eleições Legislativas 2025: O que propõem os partidos para os direitos LGBTQIA+? 🗳️🌈

Eleições Legislativas 2025: O que propõem os partidos para os direitos LGBTQIA+?
Das ausências completas sobre a população LGBTQIA+, à reposição do guia "Direito a SER nas Escolas", passando pela inclusão da identidade de Género na Constituição ou o reconhecimento legal de pessoas não binárias, os programas eleitorais para as Eleições Legislativas 2025 diferem entre si e são espelho da importância dada à proteção das minorias. E se nalguns casos a estratégia é holística, noutros a sua ausência é consequência de recuos e desinteresse.

Trump asks? We answer. Academic freedom is non-negotiable. We'll respond to Trump's anti-DEI obsession w/ more & more research on each of the forbidden words, more & more books to fill the shelves emptied by force, more & more transfeminist & queer PhD programmes. 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏽🏳️‍🌈⚧️♀️ @ucoimbra.bsky.social
