\nLambda Legal<\/a> and the ACLU<\/a> will immediately sue the Trump administration if the president signs a broad executive order on religious freedom that targets LGBT people for discrimination.<\/p>\n

The legal groups say they are prepared to block it in federal courts on constitutional grounds, thereby hoping to hand Trump another high-profile defeat like those has faced so far with his travel bans.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will fight this with everything we have,\u201d Lambda Legal senior counsel Camilla Taylor said, \u201cWe are prepared to sue in a very short timeframe if the executive order closely resembles the leaked drafts.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said the group has already assembled plaintiffs for their lawsuit.<\/p>\n

James Esseks, director of the ACLU’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, & HIV Project, added in an interview, \u201cWe are ready to sue if they do something that authorizes discrimination. If Trump signs an order like the one that we saw a couple months ago, it would violate the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment and the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.\u201d<\/p>\n
