TheĀ Biden administration announcedĀ a new rule Friday expanding safeguards againstĀ potentialĀ discriminationĀ ofĀ gay and transgender Americans seeking medical care,Ā in a reversal of Trump-era limitations that nixed federal health protections for members of the LGBTQ+ community.
Does the fact that the article states the administrations intended to work on this in 2021, and has been working on that since then earn them any grace?
Fuck if I know, do you know how long the process typically takes? I certainly donāt. I was googling this while walking the dog, Iām no expert.
I work as a government contractor and from my experience things can be held up by the silliest little things, and processes take a lot of time.
When the recent XZ security exploit, everyone was all worried about it nearly making itās way into Debian, a popular flavor of Linux, and at work we just laughed and said that means weād have to worry about it it in 10 years because weāre that slow.
Well then, yeah, Iād say itād earn them a little grace, and I appreciate you actually talking about it instead of going down the āuR uH rUsSiAn TrOlL111one!ā path. I still think itās convenient timing, but itās nice to see this was at least set into motion awhile back.
Yeah, an argument could be made that 2022 was a Senate election year, and this was fueled by that, but at that point weāre invalidating 2/4 years a president has to make changes.
On top of this, I wouldnāt be surprised by the first year being slow as they get situated, meaning year 3 is the only year that āsincereā change can be expected to be made, which is kind ofā¦harsh. Iād hate for my accomplishments to only count 25% of the time.
I also really appreciate the discourse - I hope you have a great day.
Now that I think about it, didnāt Biden come into a locked GOP senate? I suppose it could be possible they were making it difficult as well maybe? Anyhow yeah, same. Thanks for the engaging conversation choom.
Itās called ācriticismā. Your shortsided-ness must not do you any favors.
Oh you can criticize all you want.
