Todd Blanche and Markwayne Mullin both received senior positions in US government. Blanche was appointed acting attorney general, Mullin secretary of interior security. This raises questions about their LGBTQ+ positions.

Files about both men contain information on their LGBTQ+ stance. Blanche worked as a lawyer before. He focused mainly on business law matters. His positions on social debates remain publicly unclear.

Mullin comes from Oklahoma and has served Congress. Documents about his earlier statements on LGBTQ+ rights circulate. They show he supports traditional values.

These appointments are part of the new government. Supporters see these choices as fitting the policy. Critics fear LGBTQ+ persons may face pressure. The coming time will show what direction they take.
