November 11, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Before the election, President Obama warned that Donald Trump will “reverse every single thing that we’ve done.”
Much of the “progress” the Obama administration made chipped away at religious liberty, advanced abortion, and promoted the LGBT cause.
The Obama administration's HHS abortion and contraception mandate forces churches and faith-based organizations to violate their consciences by cooperating in the provision of life-ending drugs and devices.
The Obama administration has threatened schools with the loss of federal funding if they refuse to let boys into girls' bathrooms and vice versa.
According to U.S. Commission on Civil Rights Chairman Martin Castro, “Religion is being used as both a weapon and a shield by those seeking to deny others equality…The phrases ‘religious liberty’ and ‘religious freedom’ will stand for nothing except hypocrisy so long as they remain code words for discrimination, intolerance, racism, sexism, homophobia, Islamophobia, or any form of intolerance.”
The Supreme Court recently refused to take the case of Christian pharmacists in Washington state who don't want to be forced to dispense abortifacients against their consciences. The Supreme Court let a lower court ruling saying the pharmacists must violate their consciences stand–a troubling sign for religious freedom.
A Department of Justice transgender sensitivity training video instructed police to let men dressed as women into women's restrooms, and to ask people if they'd rather be called “sir” or “ma'am.”
The Affordable Care Act, Obama's signature legislation, uses taxpayer funds to subsidize abortion.
The Obama administration imposed on the country tens of thousands of regulations, many of which undermine biological truths. It declared that in order for women's shelters to receive federal funding, they must accept men who identify themselves as women.
The Trump transition team's official website promises the administration will act to “protect innocent human life from conception to natural death, including the most defenseless and those Americans with disabilities” and “protect individual conscience in healthcare.”
Its Constitutional Rights section indicates that the Trump administration seeks to restore more power to states, which would be a contrast to the Obama administration's use of the federal government to enforce its social agenda.
The administration will defend the Bill of Rights, and “this includes the Tenth Amendment guarantee that many areas of governance are left to the people and the States, and are not the role of the federal government to fulfill,” it states.
So far, it looks like Trump is hoping to make Obama's prediction come true.
