Recent attacks on Trans Americans by the Trump admin
#1
This first one was months in the making, but the Office for Civil Rights for the Dept of Education has decided that CT allowing trans athletes to compete is a violation of Title IX as it prevents girls from having equal access to sports. The lawsuit was supported by an extremist anti-LGBT group. The Dept of Ed has warned CT to abandon its policy or lose federal funding.

The other story involves the Office for Civil Rights for HHS whose notoriously anti-LGBT chief Roger Severino finalized a rule that would remove protection against discrimination on the basis on gender identity from the ACA.
