LGBTQ Issues

It seems that this Pride Month in the United States will not be as lavish as the ones before—and this comes straight from the horse’s, as in the organizers’, mouth. The Washington Post recently ran an article about the lack of funding compared to previous years for LGBT organizations putting on pride marches. Evidently, they chalk this up to ‘the Trump effect’.

The Supreme Court will allow President Donald Trump’s ban on transgender people serving in the military to take effect while court challenges continue.

In a win for the president's efforts to curb rights for transgender people, an ideologically divided court on Tuesday agreed to the administration's request for help after lower courts paused the ban.

The court’s three liberal members − Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson − said they would have rejected the request.

The Health and Human Services (HHS) Department released a report detailing damaging information about the use of “gender-affirming care” on minors suffering from gender dysphoria.

Progressives are already slamming the report because it pokes gaping holes in progressive gender ideology.. The report explains how the prevailing “gender-affirming care” model is not adequately supported by the science. It questions the ethical basis for foisting irreversible treatments such as puberty blockers, hormones, and surgeries on minors.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and to protect opportunities for women and girls to compete in safe and fair sports, it is hereby ordered:

Section 1.  Policy and Purpose.  In recent years, many educational institutions and athletic associations have allowed men to compete in women’s sports.  This is demeaning, unfair, and dangerous to women and girls, and denies women and girls the equal opportunity to participate and excel in competitive sports...

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:

Section 1.  Policy and Purpose.  Across the country today, medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions.  This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end...

Defending religious freedoms means taking on “radical gender ideology,” allowing churches to not accept gay marriages and supporting abortion restrictions, potential and announced Republican presidential candidates told Iowans Saturday.

More than 1,200 people attended the Iowa Faith & Freedom Coalition spring kick-off event Saturday at the Horizon Event Center in Clive. The event was one of the first “cattle calls” of the 2024 Republican presidential nominating cycle...

The review commissioned by Trump warns of the potential for ‘clinical recklessness’ where minors are concerned.

There is not strong evidence that “gender-affirming care” for minors is effective for treating gender dysphoria or improving mental health, according to a report issued on Thursday by the Department of Health and Human Services, based on a review of existing literature.

Several posts have been doing the rounds on social media claiming that Canada has opened its national suicide prevention hotline to LGBTQ+ youth in the US. The posts, which have rapidly gone viral, suggest a show of cross-border solidarity as the Trump administration considers major cuts to mental health funding, including specialised services for LGBTQ+ youth.

The Supreme Court will consider on Tuesday whether parents can opt out of their kids reading LGBTQ books in the classroom that conflict with their family’s faith. 

Parents in Montgomery County, Maryland are claiming their children’s schools are violating their religious freedom by not allowing them to opt out of lessons that use books featuring LGBTQ storylines.

The UK supreme court has issued a historic and definitive ruling that the terms “woman” and “sex” in the Equality Act refer only to a biological woman and to biological sex.
