FRC: Trump Will Stem Rise In LGBTQ Identification

Posted to the Family Research Council’s website:

In 2023, the rate of people who identified as LGBTQ was 7.6%. At the time, that was a sharp increase from the 3.5% recorded in 2020. However, in just one year’s time, the number has continued to climb. In fact, Gallup released a poll last week that found a record “high of 9.3% of adults [who] identified as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or something other than heterosexual.”

In the last two years of the Biden administration alone there was a sharp increase, with the percent of Gen Z that identified as LGBT going “from an average of 18.8% of Gen Z adults in 2020 through 2022 to an average of 22.7% from 2022 to 2024.”

After four years of an administration that prioritized LGBT agendas as well as controversial diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in nearly all facets of society, President Donald Trump seems to have made it his personal mission to undo most of what Biden put in place. And in keeping with what he promised on the campaign trail, Trump has done just that.

Despite the record high number of people who identify as LGBT, Trump has signed numerous orders directly pushing against LGBT activism and DEI policies — both on the federal and local levels.
