President Joe Biden marked his first year in office last week and while he, Vice President Kamala Harris, and the administration have made progress on some LGBTQ-related issues, there is still much to do.
Unfortunately, the continued polarization in Washington, D.C., especially in Congress, likely means that significant achievements for equality look uncertain.
Biden only has until the November midterm elections to work with a Democratic-controlled Congress, and even that is largely in name only.
The Democratic majority is slim in the House of Representatives and non-existent in the Senate, where bisexual Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D-Arizona) and Senator Joe Manchin (D-West Virginia) are determined to thwart Biden's domestic agenda at every turn.Upon taking office last January, Biden quickly reversed the military's ban on trans service members.
