A United Nations (UN) expert said they were concerned about the future of LGBTQ+ rights in the US after a recent ten-day visit.

Back in August, the United Nations announced that independent expert Victor Madrigal-Borloz would be visiting the US to assess the human rights of the LGBTQ+ community.  “The visit provides an important opportunity to assess the implementation of human rights standards to combat violence and discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and gender-diverse (LGBT) people in the country,” he said in a statement.

During his trip, which took place from 16 August to 29 August, Madrigal-Borloz met with government authorities, human rights defenders, and advocates of various states – including Washington D.C., Birmingham –Alabama, Miami – Florida, and San Diego – California.

A day after he concluded his visit, Madrigal-Borloz presented his findings during a UN press conference on 30 August. According to his report, he found that LGBTQ+ people of colour, faced the most inequality regarding health, education, employment, and housing. “Among young adults aged 18-25, LGBT people have a 2.2 times greater risk of homelessness than non-LGBT people; 23% of LGBTQ adults of color, 22% of transgender adults, and 32% of transgender adults of color have no form of health coverage,” he said.
