https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/doj-launches-anti-trans-investigations>On April 30th, the DOJ's Civil Rights Division, led by anti-trans activist and Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon, launched investigations into 36 Illinois public school districts over LGBTQ+ and transgender issues. The investigations target whether transgender students are allowed to use bathrooms and play sports, and whether students learn that LGBTQ+ people exist in their education and curriculum. Dhillon cited Mahmoud v. Taylor, a narrow Supreme Court ruling about religious opt-outs from storybooks that says nothing about banning LGBTQ+ content from schools, as well as a novel interpretation of Title IX that claims the law requires discrimination against transgender students. The investigations carry the implicit threat of federal funding losses and other punitive action. Notably, the Trump administration has tried this same playbook with school districts across the country and has failed repeatedly: school districts in Virginia, Denver, Chicago, and New York City all refused to comply with similar demands, and a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction blocking the administration's restrictions on behalf of a 16-state coalition.>"Today, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division launched investigations into 36 Illinois public school districts to determine whether they have included sexual orientation and gender ideology (SOGI) content in any class for grades pre-K-12," reads the DOJ's announcement. "If they are teaching SOGI-related content, the investigations will examine whether the schools have notified parents of their right to opt their children out of such instruction.

They're scrambling. This shit doesn't fly in blue states.

>>43466378>The investigations carry the implicit threat of federal funding losses and other punitive actionThey want to defund the education system... literally their threats are empty retarded wailing. They did it with the Healthcare Subsidies, Food Stamps, and they'll do it here. Call them on the bluff, they are going to do this to every school anyway.
