Washington, D.C.: What’s Next? Biden’s Opportunity Before Trump Takes Charge

As the clock ticks down to the day Donald Trump takes the Presidential seat once again, the chatter in Washington, D.C. has hit a fever pitch. With a hefty agenda in mind, Trump aims to overhaul American life in a way that leaves many in fear, especially those in the LGBTQ+ community, immigrants, and advocates for police reform. So what’s President Biden’s game plan to fend off some of the damage that might come from a Trump-led administration? We’re breaking it down.

The LGBTQ+ Community on Edge

One of the most pressing issues on the horizon involves transgender rights. Trump’s administration has hinted at redefining sex, effectively aiming to erase transgender identities. According to experts, this redefinition could mean that sex is strictly tied to anatomical characteristics at birth and might not allow for self-identification. Talk about a nightmare for the LGBTQ+ community!

Biden’s current term could play a significant role in protecting these rights. Experts propose he should focus on confirming judges that align with these progressive values. With several judicial confirmations already under his belt, there’s still room to reach the same number achieved by Trump during his first term. Additionally, following through with plans outlined in Executive Order 14075 could help ensure federal agencies are prepared to cater to the increased needs of LGBTQ+ individuals.

Data Collection and Police Reform: A Tough Road Ahead

Moving on to policing—an issue that has captured plenty of headlines since the George Floyd protests. Under Biden, there’s been a push for better data collection practices to track police actions and misconduct. Experts warn that a Trump administration could put a full stop to these practices, potentially leading to a spike in police violence narratives. Patrice Willoughby from the NAACP says it’s crucial for Biden to ensure that this data remains accessible to advocacy organizations and local governments, even putting in place methods for ongoing data collection beyond his term.

Immigration: A Looming Crisis

Under Trump’s leadership, mass deportations and immigration raids are likely to develop into tragic realities. Experts are particularly concerned about the existing infrastructure for detaining immigrants, which remains intact today. Naureen Shah from the ACLU points to the sharp rise in detentions during Biden’s time, cautioning that it leaves the door wide open for Trump to fill those detention centers to the brim.

To combat this, Biden should consider proactively closing detention centers across the country—a measure that could slow down any proposed mass deportation campaigns. Without taking charge, the President could risk becoming a silent spectator as the country turns back the clock on immigration rights.

Foreign Policy: Navigating Tricky Waters

As if that wasn’t enough, there’s also the rapidly evolving situation in Israel and Palestine. Experts say Biden could leverage U.S. military assistance to push for better humanitarian practices amid the ongoing conflict. By aiming for an honest assessment of Israel’s actions, Biden can put forth an important statement. The fear is that Trump’s administration, lacking any inclination for justice, would only serve to perpetuate injustices.

Education and Diversity: A Battle for Inclusion

Now, stepping into the realm of education, what’s to happen to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs? With Trump likely to pursue policies against DEI, states could face an uphill battle in fostering inclusive classrooms. Experts point out that the Department of Education must also take executive actions to safeguard programs that protect students from discrimination. This is particularly critical for students facing issues surrounding race, sexual orientation, and gender identity.

Conclusion: What Can Biden Achieve Before the Deadline?

With the anticipated waves coming from Trump, it’s clear Biden has a full plate ahead. From protecting LGBTQ+ rights to reforming police practices and addressing the immigration crisis, every decision made in the coming weeks can have monumental implications. Time is running out, but the right actions could help curb the worst effects of Trump’s agenda and create a more inclusive climate for all.”
