“Federal funds will not be used to poison the minds of the next generation”: Trump administration orders purge of transgender references from sex-ed

The Trump administration has ordered states to strip transgender references from federally funded sex education or lose millions in grants under the Personal Responsibility Education Program. California already lost $12 million after refusing. Critics call it an erasure of identity, while officials frame it as protecting youth from “gender ideology,” escalating the administration’s broader campaign against transgender recognition.
