      White House @PressSec Spicer basically just said without saying it that the transgender guidance will be reversed.

          I would assume Sessions is also looking to rescind the Holder memorandum re: Title VII and anti-trans discrimination.

          So far nothing has been retracted, all Obama policies remain in place, including the openly gay LGBT World Envoy.

          How about instead of focusing on what has been said without saying anything, you look at what is/isn't being done.

          This is a states rights issue and should be handled by the states. The Fed Gov needs to stay out of it.
