    The Facts

    • On Thurs., the Biden administration - in recognition of Transgender Day of Visibility - announced a series of new measures to support transgender people.

    • This includes backing for gender affirming care for children - including gender-reassignment surgery and hormone treatments - as well as support for transgender youth's access to sports and bathrooms that match their gender identity.


    The Spin

    Left narrative

    This was an especially strong move by the Biden administration as states across the country implement legislation that discriminates against people from the transgender community. Transgender Americans will benefit immesurably from this new raft of support.

    Right narrative

    Science and biological sex continue to be thrown out the window. The White House's radical endorsement of irreversible and damaging procedures for children is nothing more than misleading propaganda. Biden is attempting to make decisions on behalf of parents and is putting children at risk in the process.
