Trump Admin Warns States: Remove Gender Ideology ‘Poison’ Or Lose Funding | Eastern NC Now

    The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services directed 40 states, five territories, and Washington, D.C., on Tuesday to eliminate gender ideology from their federally funded Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) within 60 days.

    "Accountability is coming," said Acting Assistant Secretary Andrew Gradison. "Federal funds will not be used to poison the minds of the next generation or advance dangerous ideological agendas. The Trump Administration will ensure that PREP reflects the intent of Congress, not the priorities of the left."

    The only states not listed as recipients of these letters were Arkansas, California, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Texas, and Virginia. The territories listed as recipients included Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

    "Last week, ACF terminated California's PREP grant after the state failed to meet its demand to remove gender ideology from its educational materials. States and territories receiving these new letters are now on notice: failure to comply will result in similar enforcement actions including the withholding, suspension, or termination of federal PREP funding," HHS stated.

    New York would lose the most federal funding, more than $6 million. Pennsylvania would be next, at roughly $4.6 million. The complete list is here.

    HHS published all the letters sent to each state here.

    According to the letter sent to the state of New York, the state's PREP curriculum includes statements such as these: "Gender identity is people's inner understanding of what gender they identify with. It may be man, woman, something in between, or something that doesn't fit these labels. It may be the same as (cisgender) or different from (transgender) the sex they were assigned at birth. Gender identity is unique for each person."


    The letter to Pennsylvania notes statements like these in their PREP curricula: " ... during the roleplay practice, participants may roleplay social pressure situations with someone of a different or the same gender. This may be awkward for straight teens who are sensitive to the suggestion of same-sex romance, for teens who identify as gay or lesbian, or for teens who are transgender or gender nonconforming. It is important to address this situation directly and proactively."

Considering the current overwhelming obstacles inflicting stress upon America's working class: rampant inflation; energy insecurity; supply chain turmoil; banking failures; foreign policy disasters; government corruption; (DEI) Diversity Equity Inclusion narrative, with WOKE extremes practiced; Climate Change ideology; intractable crime wave in Leftist cities; wide open border by executive design; a permanently discredited Legacy Media; failed or failing education industry, just to name a few of the many: Who should Americans blame?

  Donald J. Trump

  Joseph R. Biden

  Leftist controlled Congress for the last 4 years.

  Bloated, incompetent bureaucracy weaponized and poorly managed

  The electorate, US, for putting these fools in elected office that utterly fail

Now that President Trump is picking his cabinet and immediate staff to insulate him from the poor judgement of the Bureaucratic Class, while moving quickly to transition this Constitutional Republic unto a wise and sustainable direction: What is your immediate impression as to how our nation will prosper?

  We are headed toward a Golden Age in America's self-governed society.

  This will all wind up in a clustered mess since Trump is a Fascist, and thought to be the second coming of Adolf Hitler by our best journalists.

  This is a time where critical days lay ahead, where only wise and responsible decisions must be made to sustain US.

  I generally do not pay attention, but expect only the best to occur ... and that is what I always expect.
