Dear , what is your position on holding conferences in the US, especially with respect to minorities, women and LGBT, especially T?

I know that scientific conferences are sometimes held in countries that do not treat women & LGBT correctly, but somehow these countries' policies are often predictible, whereas the US is now characterized by instability.

We can't hold conferences in a place where attendees may get arrested for something as mundane as going to the bathroom.
