Court Battle Ends With California School District Keeping Its Revised Parental Notification Policy. By
Brad Jones, California Insider, February 19, 2025. “Neither California officials nor the Chino Valley
Unified School District have appealed a court ruling over the district’s revised parental notification
policy that would inform parents if their child requests changes to his or her school records, according
to the school board president and the state attorney general… Bonta’s office said the attorney general
received a final judgment in September blocking the school district “from ever adopting another forced
outing policy.” Emily Rae, a senior attorney at Liberty Justice Center, a nonprofit law firm representing
the district, told The Epoch Times on Feb. 19 that the ruling was a partial win and ... partial loss for
both sides. “So, in reality, how it works with the district now is, if a child wants to transition, parents
are still notified, but they’re not notified that their child is transitioning. They’re notified that the
student records have changed, and then the parents can inquire further and ask what got changed on the
record, and then the school will not lie to parents,” Rae said.”

Gender Clinic Whistleblower to Testify Before NH House Committee Monday. By Michael Graham,
NH Journal, February 27, 2025. (Jamie Reed) “But when Reed testifies before the House Health,

manager at The Washington University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children’s Hospital. Watching
children – some as young as three — being “treated” for gender dysphoria or receiving “gender-
affirming care” left her so shaken that she is now an outspoken opponent of sex change procedures for
children.”

H.R.28 – Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025. 119th Congress (2025-2026) Summary
of the bill: “This bill generally prohibits school athletic programs from allowing individuals whose
biological sex at birth was male to participate in programs that are for women or girls.
Specifically, the bill provides that it is a violation of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 for
federally funded education programs or activities to operate, sponsor, or facilitate athletic programs or
activities that allow individuals of the male sex to participate in programs or activities that are
designated for women or girls. (Title IX prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in federally funded
education programs or activities, including in public elementary and secondary schools and in colleges
and universities.) Under the bill, sex is based on an individual's reproductive biology and genetics at
birth. The bill does not prohibit male individuals from training or practicing with programs or activities
for women or girls as long as such training or practice does not deprive any female of corresponding
opportunities or benefits. The Government Accountability Office must report on the benefits for
women or girls in single-sex sports that would be lost as a result of male participation. In particular, the
report must document the negative psychological, developmental, participatory, and sociological effects
of male participation on girls.”

Letter from Julie A. Hamill of the California Justice Center, APC, to U.S. Department of Education
officials challenging California AB 1955 (effective 2025) and California AB 1266 (2013). Hamill
argues that AB 1266 — which permits a student to participate in sex-segregated school programs based
on the student’s “gender identity” — “violates the plain language and intent of Title IX of the
Education Amendments of 1972.” Hamill argues that AB 1955 — which allows a child’s gender
identity at school to be concealed from their parents — violates the Federal Educational Rights and
Privacy Act (FERPA) and further argues that “under 20 U.S.C. § 1232g(a)(1)(A), no federal
funds may be made available to California public schools as long as the schools are complying
with California’s AB 1266, AB 1955, and their attendant guidance.” The letter requests “an
investigation and action to achieve compliance with federal laws.”

California Assembly Bill 844. “With the passage of AB844, females would be able to enter showers,
bathrooms and locker rooms without fear that a male, who thinks that he is a woman, might be
watching her undress or expose his male body to her...This bill would enshrine into law that there are
two sexes in the human race, as there always have been and always will be. It will relegate gender
identity as secondary to biological reality. It might even restore the Democrats’ status as a party of
science, of equality, of women’s rights, and of placing truth above all else.”

adults are concerned about the medical treatment of gender dysphoric youth is that they experienced
that condition as children. Like so many, they grew out of it, and later identified as gay. There is
overlap between childhood GD, and childhood gender nonconformity, and later homosexuality; thus
they see these medical interventions as a kind of conversion therapy. The media and medical
community’s refusal to acknowledge that has left a generation misinformed. The left wing, and
especially the left and center press, have gotten this story very, very wrong.”

“Harper is currently helping to lead an ambitious study of trans adolescents that measures their results
on a 10-step fitness test before they start hormone therapy and then, after they have begun to medically
transition, every six months for five years. But, she told me when we talked in February, “the current
climate makes the study somewhat uncertain.” I assumed she was referring to the Trump
administration’s cuts to National Institutes of Health research grants, but she said money was not a
problem: The study is being funded by Nike. The problem was Trump’s separate order targeting
medical care for transgender youth. “If we can’t perform gender-affirming care,” she explained, “then
we can’t bring people into the study.”) Also, link to the New York Times Magazine article.

attached itself to the homosexual rights movement that originally existed to protect the right of lesbian,
bisexual, and gay adults to engage in same-sex attraction and protect their partners, families, and assets.
Same-sex couples obtained this with the right to marry in Western countries. The "LGBTQ+" agenda
advocates for radical demands that hurt rather than support the best interests of LGB people.
"LGBTQ+" advocates for irrevocable medical body modification on gender dysphoric minors who
often resolved gender dysphoria in the past and likely grew up LGB. It is removing parental rights from
justifiably concerned parents. It seeks to eradicate sex-based legal definitions that nullify the concept of
sexual orientation, harm girls and women, and destabilize youths' relationships with their bodies and
reality. It normalizes sexually inappropriate behavior in front of children. And it misrepresents
important issues to the public while inflicting authoritarian activism that punishes dissenters. It's time
for a return to sanity for LGB people who care about the youth in our minority groups and progress for
LGB people in other countries.”

States Must Refuse to Define “Abuse” as Raising a Child According to His or Her Sex. By Laura

accusing parents of “abuse” if they fail to affirm their child’s discordant “gender identity.” Blue states;
legal, educational, and child welfare systems; and the gender-industry-medical complex are all pressing
for this redefinition of abuse—which is a frontal attack on children and families. While President
Trump’s priorities and executive orders provide a welcome reprieve from the ideological strictures
imposed nationally by the Biden Administration, the weaponization of Child Protective Services

Thirty years later gender identity suddenly became a legal concept. In 1994, trans activists in San

They were defining the term exactly as the doctors and psychologists did. Today gender identity

[of EO 14187] directs agencies to rescind or amend all policies that rely on the “Standards of Care
Version 8” developed by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH). These
standards were not drafted based on scientific evidence, but on political considerations. During the
drafting process, then-Assistant Secretary for Health, Admiral Levine, lobbied WPATH to drop its
proposed age limits for surgical mutilation. Levine then issued Federal guidance titled “Gender-
affirming Care and Young People,” which promoted the chemical sterilization and surgical mutilation
of minors…” (Also contains language about enforcing 18 USC § 116 Female genital mutilation)

USDA agrees to not freeze Maine nutrition funds over transgender athletes
By Nate Raymond, Reuters, May 3, 2025 updated. “May 2 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's
administration agreed on Friday to refrain from unilaterally cutting off Maine's access to federal
funding used to feed school children, ending one of several legal fights stemming from the state's

include sterility, sexual dysfunction, impaired bone-density and brain development, psychiatric
comorbidities, and surgical complications. The report rejects claims that gender transition reduces

@1stLiberty (First Liberty Institute) May 13, 2025 X post. “A federal judge in California has ruled that
a school must provide notification and opt-outs to parents and students when promoting gender
ideology in “buddy classes.” This religious freedom battle began in 2024 when the Encinitas (CA)
Union School District required 5th grade students to read a book called My Shadow is Pink (which
urges children to question their gender identity), share the book with their kindergarten buddies, and
then help the kindergarteners decide and draw what color shadow best “represents” them…”

Order by U.S. District Judge M. James Lorenz granting in part plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary
injunction. “… Plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction is granted to the extent that preliminary
injunctive relief shall apply only to the Encinitas Union School District elementary school buddy
program, and that buddy program class activities and materials shall not cover gender identity topics
covered in health instruction, unless Defendants provide parents with advance notice and an
opportunity to opt out.” (The school’s lesson being challenged had fifth grade students discuss the book
My Shadow is Pink with their kindergarten “buddies.”) “My Shadow Is Pink is about a boy who liked
to wear dresses and play with toys associated with girls. (Pls’ Ex. F.) Because the boy thought he did
not “fit in” with his family and peers, his shadow was pink rather than blue. (Id.) The story involves a
conflict between the boy and his father. The father eventually comes to accept his son’s “pink shadow”
not as a phase but as reflecting the boy’s “inner-most self.” (Id.) Although the term “gender identity”
does not appear in the book, the author describes it as a children’s book on the subject of gender
identity.”

on the basis of his or her sexual orientation or “transgender status” constitutes unlawful sex
discrimination under Title VII, which prohibits discrimination in the employment context. The
Supreme Court did not tell us what the phrase “transgender status” means for Title VII purposes or for

XX-XY Athletics sues Colorado for violating right to speak truth that men and women are different.
ADF files suit on behalf of apparel company after state passes law restricting brand’s ability to refer to
male athletes and customers as male if they identify as female. Alliance Defending Freedom, May 28,
2025. “On May 16, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signed HB25-1312 into law, a policy that amends the
Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act to define “gender expression” to include “chosen name” and “how
an individual chooses to be addressed.” The law, therefore, requires businesses like XX-XY Athletics to
address male customers who identify as female as females and also requires businesses to avoid any
statement or advertisement that indicates customers are “unwelcome” based on their gender expression
and chosen name. The brand frequently refers to male athletes and male customers as male—even if
they identify as female—putting the company at risk of violating Colorado’s law and facing cease-and-
desist orders, expensive investigations, hearings, and civil and criminal penalties.” ADF case page.

Education Code section 221.5(f) back in 2013. That law requires school districts to allow students to
compete in the athletics and use the facilities that align with their gender identity instead of their sex.
That is the root of the problem. That needs to be rescinded, and the state of California needs to stop
enforcing that law if you are going to abide by Title IX. If California doesn’t want to do that, fine, but
they need to stop accepting federal funds. That’s a condition. You have to comply with federal law to

Democrats Compared Parental Rights Groups to the KKK While Passing a Transgender Law. Now,
Those Groups Are Suing. By Tyler O’Neil, Daily Signal, May 20, 2025. Regarding Colorado HB 25-
1312, “The lawsuit claims this violates the First Amendment by compelling Coloradans to speak to
promote transgender issues, in violation of their free speech. It also claims that requiring staff at places
of public accommodation to use a transgender person’s “chosen name” is unconstitutionally vague and
subject to arbitrary enforcement, violating the 14th Amendment...”

misled parents, promoted unproven treatments as settled science, and ignored growing international
concern over the use of sex-change procedures to treat gender dysphoria in minors. Contrary to their
public claims, these groups had little reliable evidence to support their recommended interventions.

@WomenAreReals (WomenAreReal) June 17, 2025 X post commenting on NYT’s interview with Rep.
Sarah McBride. “During an interview with Ezra Klein, Rep. Sarah McBride (a male politician who
claims womanhood) explains why support for trans rights was a “mirage” and is now cratering. I
actually agree with the first 60 seconds of his analysis. Many people initially supported the trans
movement because it was force-teamed with gay rights. But that’s not what “stopped the conversation.”
The conversation never even happened because there are no good arguments for letting teenage boys
steal girls’ state championships or for housing male rapists in women’s prisons. The only way to
maintain support was to suppress dissent. That strategy is falling apart.”

@salltweets (Sall Grover) June 17, 2025 X post commenting on NYT’s interview with Rep. Sarah
McBride. “Yes, @Rep_McBride, is correct that the initial support for the trans rights movement wasn’t
real or sustainable & that the support came from people not understanding what they were supporting.
But, and this is the really important part, the moment it was understood what trans rights truly means
the support evaporated for very good reasons. This is because, trans rights always meant: • Women are
a class of people that men can identify into, thereby destroying women’s sex based rights; • Men
claiming to be women can destroy lesbian rights & communities due to the fetishes of heterosexual
men; • Gay men are, at the very least, are shamed for not accepting women who claim to be men as gay
men; • Children are lied to about the very clear reality of biological sex and the utter nonsense of
gender identity; • Vulnerable children & young adults are sterilized via completely experimental yet
unnecessary medical intervention based on the utter nonsense; • EVERYONE’S right to freedom of
speech & belief is upended by ridiculousness such as, but not limited to, “preferred pronouns” &
acknowledging correctly what one sees with their own eyes, destroying careers & lives for simply
perceiving the world correctly & telling the truth…”

@wesyang (Wesley Yang) June 18, 2025 X posts commenting on a detail in the New York Times
interview of Representative Sarah McBride by Ezra Klein. Yang writes, “There was no "abandonment
of persuasion" by trans ideologues. They understood that forcing compliance to the absurdities and
falsehoods that they intended to impose was the only way this was ever going to work. The
international movement wrote strategy documents advising against bringing these issues to the public
and instead focusing on administrative and juridical institutions beyond the reach of any popular
participation. They executed this agenda with tremendous success and while they face an initial setback
as the public comes to understand what all of this means in practice, they are committed to imposing it
through non-democratic means, and thwarting any attempts by the people to put a check on their
ambitions as they ever were.”

United States v. Skrmetti, Attorney General And Reporter For Tennessee, et al. Supreme Court
Decision. Case No. 23-477. Decided June 18, 2025. Syllabus and Opinions. “Held: Tennessee’s law
prohibiting certain medical treatments for transgender minors is not subject to heightened scrutiny
under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and satisfies rational basis review…
This case carries with it the weight of fierce scientific and policy debates about the safety, efficacy, and
propriety of medical treatments in an evolving field. The voices in these debates raise sincere concerns;
the implications for all are profound. The Equal Protection Clause does not resolve these
disagreements. Nor does it afford us license to decide them as we see best. Our role is not “to judge the
wisdom, fairness, or logic” of the law before us… but only to ensure that it does not violate the equal
protection guarantee of the Fourteenth Amendment. Having concluded it does not, we leave questions
regarding its policy to the people, their elected representatives, and the democratic process. The
judgment of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit is affirmed. It is so ordered.”

suicide among "trans kids" before sex change drugs and surgeries became available, that's because

child abuse and medical scandal on our hands and that the roots of it went so deep and I just went to my
editors and I said I feel like my head’s going to spin off my body but this is what’s happening. Thank
God they saw it early and we decided to dig in and do some of the most original shoe leather
journalism and I started talking to endocrinologists and doctors and was like what’s going on? And I
was able to find the dissenters who weren’t captured by the mainstream ideologues and out of that I
started hearing from many many victims and it just grew from there…”

@wesyang (Wesley Yang) June 20, 2025 X post commenting on a post by detransitioner
@burnyourbinder (Claire) who wrote, “cutting my breasts off as a middle school girl was not
"healthcare" it was self harm wrapped in a bow. it was no different than when I was cutting my wrists,
but this time everyone celebrated me for it.” Wes Yang writes, “Yes, "gender clinicians" are slicing off
the breasts of middle school girls after assuring them that doing so will help them be the boy they
always really were on the inside. Yes, they are all brimming with pride and believe themselves to be
heroes and saviors as they inflict macabre medicalized self-harm on children. Yes, the whole
Democratic party at every level is unified in ensuring this practice spreads as widely possible and in
calling anyone who tries to stop it a cruel bigot "attacking" the "Trans Kids" denied gender-affirming
double mastectomies. Yes, it is exactly as insane as it sounds, it has happened thousands of times to
girls as young as 12, and smooth-voiced men with reasonable demeanors like Ezra Klein now want to
heed Sarah McBride's call for a tactical reset to ensure that the public is properly persuaded that doing
this is necessary and good through incremental change.” Also, Wes Yang’s X site.

Eliza Mondegreen asserts that online trans communities significantly shape young people's perceptions of gender identity, using tactics reminiscent of cult behaviors. These communities promote transitioning as a sole solution to their challenges, influencing youth to adopt specific identities and possibly leading them to undertake irreversible decisions about their health .
Title IX initially aimed to establish gender equality in education and sports, but its application has become contentious with the inclusion of transgender athletes in female sports divisions. This inclusion has led to legal challenges around fairness and safety, as some argue it breaches the spirit of the original Title IX protections. Lawsuits and federal complaints have emerged arguing that Title IX does not accommodate natal males participating in female sports .
The study 'Examining gender-specific mental health risks after gender-affirming surgery' highlighted the paradox where gender-affirming procedures, meant to align physical form with gender identity, often result in increased mental health issues, emphasizing the complexity of such interventions. This research calls for comprehensive support systems beyond surgery to help manage the mental health risks these individuals may face .
Jamie Reed, based on her experience at a gender clinic, argues that children, some as young as three, receive gender-affirming care prematurely, without sufficient consideration of long-term consequences. Reed maintains that gender identity treatments offered to these young children can be harmful and contribute to later life challenges .
The New England Journal of Medicine has faced criticism for allegedly yielding to transgender activists, which critics like Leor Sapir claim compromises scientific integrity. The concern is that the journal is prioritizing political considerations over empirical evidence, potentially dismissing dissenting research that challenges favored narratives regarding gender-affirming treatments .
Megyn Kelly warned U.S. Senators as the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act was advancing, emphasizing scrutiny over the inclusion of transgender athletes in women's sports. Kelly's caution reflects concerns of many who believe this inclusion compromises fairness and safety in female sports competitions .
California Assembly Bill 1955, which prohibits school personnel from disclosing a student's gender identity to parents, challenges the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). This has prompted an investigation by the U.S. Department of Education, as the bill conflicts with federal laws ensuring parental rights to access educational records. The consequences include potential withdrawal of federal funding and legal challenges against California's education policies .
Colorado's HB25-1312 categorizes deadnaming and misgendering as discriminatory acts, which may have far-reaching implications for freedom of speech and professional conduct. This legal definition could provide grounds for disciplinary measures against individuals and institutions, causing concern among those who view such legislation as an overreach affecting personal rights and expression .
Chris Reykdal argues that it is inaccurate to assert there are only two genders, which forms part of his defense for allowing transgender athletes to participate in sports. His stance is based on a broader understanding of gender identity, which challenges traditional binary notions .
Puberty blockers, while used in gender-affirming treatments, have been controversial due to potential mental health risks and ethical considerations. Critics argue they can lead to increased mental health challenges post-surgery and exacerbate gender dysphoria rather than alleviate it. This necessitates ongoing, sensitive mental health support for those undergoing such treatments .
