The Stonewall National Monument in Greenwich Village, established in 2016 by President Obama, honours the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. The website originally referenced the oppression of "lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer" people before the 1960s, but this has been reduced to "LGB". Terms like "queer" have also been removed.

This change is part of the Trump administration’s broader efforts to restrict the recognition of transgender and non-binary individuals. Organisations such as the National Parks Conservation Association and GLAAD condemn the move as an attempt at historical erasure. "The Stonewall Uprising – a monumental moment in the fight for LGBTQ rights – would not have happened without the leadership of transgender and gender non-conforming people," GLAAD stated. "The tireless work of Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera, and countless other trans women of colour paved the way and continue to inspire us. You can try to erase our history, but we will never forget those who came before us and we will continue to fight for all those who will come after us."

The Stonewall Inn and its associated foundation are demanding the immediate restoration of transgender history references. "Let us be clear: Stonewall is transgender history. Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera, and countless other trans and gender-nonconforming individuals fought bravely, and often at great personal risk, to push back against oppressive systems," their statement reads. "We will not stand by while the legacies of our transgender siblings are erased from the history books. The Stonewall Inn and The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative stand unwaveringly in solidarity with the transgender community and all who fight for full equality, and we will not rest until this grave injustice is corrected."
