The 2010 passage of the Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act and the 2015 legalization of same-sex marriage in the United States marked important milestones. More recently, the 2020 executive order by President Joe Biden, which prohibits discrimination against LGBTQ individuals, including trans people, in healthcare, education, and employment, represents a significant step forward.
