U.S. Customs and Border Protection revoked security clearances from immigrant airport workers, costing dozens their jobs

Beginning shortly after the January 2025 inauguration, U.S. Customs and Border Protection revoked or denied "customs seal" security-clearance renewals for immigrant airport workers holding valid green cards, asylum status, or Temporary Protected Status, despite no change in their immigration status. On June 30, 2025, CBP revoked the seal of Logan International Airport cabin cleaner Saint Paul Paul, a Haitian Temporary Protected Status holder, telling him he posed an "unacceptable risk." At least 80 workers at Logan alone, and hundreds more nationwide, lost their jobs; SEIU Local 32BJ and four affected workers sued the Trump administration over the policy on March 13, 2026.

House Budget Chair Rep. Dirk Deaton had added budget language conditioning state funding for Missouri's public colleges and universities on eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.

Ohio Gov. DeWine signed HB96, barring Medicaid coverage of gender-affirming care and enacting two-sexes policy

On June 30, 2025, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed House Bill 96, the state's FY2026-27 operating budget, into law. The budget bars Ohio's Medicaid program from covering gender-affirming mental health care for transgender adults, bans menstrual products in men's restrooms of public buildings, and declares a state policy that only two "unchangeable" sexes exist. DeWine used his line-item veto to strike three related provisions from the bill, including restrictions on LGBTQ-themed library materials and a ban on Pride flag displays on state property.
