Trump Orders States to Remove Gender Ideology or Lose Federal Funding

Let’s be honest. Something has gone very wrong in our schools. You’ve seen it, and I’ve seen it. Classrooms that should be teaching kids how to read and write are now pushing confusing ideas that have no place near a child. Since when is it a school’s job to teach a six-year-old about gender pronouns?

And you know what the worst part is? You’re paying for it. Your tax dollars are funding this nonsense, paying for programs that tell kids to question basic biology. For too long, it’s felt like a runaway train, with no one in charge willing to hit the brakes.

From The Post Millennial:

The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through its Administration for Children and Families (ACF), has directed 46 states and territories to eliminate all references to “gender ideology” from their federally funded Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) materials within 60 days or lose federal funding…

“Federal funds will not be used to poison the minds of the next generation or advance dangerous ideological agendas.”

But it looks like someone in Washington finally got the memo. In a move that has the left reeling, the Trump Administration just dropped the hammer on states that are using federal money to poison the minds of our children.

The directive came straight from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). And they didn’t mince words. Just look at what Acting Assistant Secretary Andrew Gradison had to say about it.

A Line in the Sand for Common Sense

The target of this new policy is a program called PREP, which stands for Personal Responsibility Education Program. It was supposed to be about preventing teen pregnancy and teaching basic health. Common sense, right? But of course, the left hijacked it, turning it into a Trojan horse for their radical gender ideology.

Now, the administration has given 46 states an ultimatum: you have 60 days to clean this garbage out of your curriculum, or the money stops. And if you think they’re bluffing, just ask California. They refused to comply and already had their funding cut. It’s about time we had a government that says what it means and means what it says.

Taxpayer Dollars for Education, Not Indoctrination

This isn’t rocket science. It’s about being responsible with your money. Why should Americans in one state have their taxes sent to another state to fund a curriculum that they find morally wrong?

The sums aren’t small, either. New York, for instance, could lose over $6 million. Maybe that will finally get their attention. The Trump Administration is simply enforcing the idea that federal funds should be used for what Congress actually intended, not for some bureaucrat’s woke pet project.

The Predictable Outcry From the Left

And right on cue, the professional complainers started screeching. A mouthpiece for California’s governor called the move an “attack on kids’ safety” and a “culture war.”

An “attack on safety”? Give me a break. Keeping confusing, adult-themed nonsense away from children is the very definition of safety. They call it a culture war because they’re finally losing. To the rest of us, it’s just called protecting our kids.

Look, this isn’t just about some government program. This is about drawing a line in the sand. It’s a message that says parents are back in charge, common sense is making a comeback, and our kids are not going to be pawns in anyone’s political game. It’s a huge win for families, and it’s about time.

Key Takeaways

• The Trump Administration is defunding programs that push gender ideology on children.
• This action ensures taxpayer money is used for education, not indoctrination.
• The move restores the rights of parents to guide their children’s upbringing.
• The left’s predictable outrage proves their priority is ideology, not kids’ well-being.
