Hillary Clinton on Saturday went after the Trump administration for its "attacks" on the LGBT community.

"The attacks on the LGBT community here at home and around the world are striking and scary. I can only imagine what it's like to be in the position that so many people still find themselves in in our country," Clinton told an audience of LGBT activists in Washington, according to Politico.

"I do know what it feels like to be torn down and attacked and I want you to know that I'm with you."

Clinton added that the country can't rely on the administration or the Supreme Court to "uphold LGBT rights."

"We need to be agitating to pass the Equality Act," she said.

She also warned the audience that "we have some tough battles ahead."

During her speech, she also mentioned President Trump's announcement earlier this year that he would implement a ban on transgender people serving in the military.

"You know and [Trump] knows that transgender people have fought and died for this country," Clinton said.

Earlier this month, Attorney General Jeff Sessions reversed course on the Justice Department's policy that a 1964 civil rights law protects transgender individuals from discrimination.

Groups that advocate for LGBT rights say they increasingly feel they are under assault from the Trump administration, with advocates saying the administration is mounting a wide-ranging campaign against gay rights.
