Is LQBTQ rights a state, federal or both issue

1 answer

LGBTQ rights can be seen as both a state and federal issue. Certain states may have specific laws and regulations in place to protect the rights of LGBTQ individuals, such as non-discrimination laws, hate crime legislation, and marriage equality laws. However, there are also federal protections in place, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination based on sex, including sexual orientation and gender identity. Additionally, the Supreme Court has issued decisions that have granted LGBTQ individuals protections under the Constitution. Therefore, LGBTQ rights are considered both a state and federal issue.
