    Considering LGBTQ+ is a protected group in the USA

    [citation needed]

    As far as I understand, the US “Equality Act” fizzled out the last time it tried to make its way through the US parliament. That would codify LGBTQ+ protections into actual law in the US. The closest thing I can find is a Supreme Court ruling that LGBTQ protections are covered under the Civil Rights Act in Bostock v. Clayton County, but the Supreme Court is a fickle beast, and I doubt they would rule the same way today if it were challenged again.
