I don't understand why people need a brochure on how to "verbally affirm LGBT co-workers". Are LGBT folks that sensitive that if their colleagues aren't praising them for who they have sex with or because they were "born in the wrong body" or because there aren't rainbow pride stickers plastered in every cubicle they won't want to work there any more? None of the LGBT people I've ever worked with seemed that easily butthurt.
I'm happy that those members of the LGBT community found a workplace where this sort of pamphlet wasn't needed. Please don't let that distract you from the fact that these are serious concerns for people in certain other workplaces. I would guess that the Department of Justice doesn't have a huge problem, but I don't see any harm in a pamphlet like this one. Things like preferred pronouns can be tricky.
