Some Twitter users say they’re still able to access the report (I, for one, cannot). Elsewhere, occurrences of “LGBT” appear to already have been wiped from WhiteHouse.gov.
All mentions of #LGBT removed from https://t.co/SA7jODMMx8; 44 mentions for ‘military’. The great work begins. pic.twitter.com/CIpdITywnl

To be fair, officials could very well replace these pages with different information outlining the Trump administration’s plans to protect LGBT workers, many of whom can still legally be fired for being gay or trans all across the United States.
Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.RB
