Over the past several months, the Trump administration has sought to strip federal funding from schools that teach about gender identity or include transgender students in their policies. Many districts have refused to comply with the administration’s directives, issued under an executive order that labeled transgender people “false,” prompting the withholding of tens of millions of dollars in federal education funds. Now, in a major development, a federal judge in Oregon has informed all parties in a lawsuit brought by 16 states that she intends to issue a preliminary injunction blocking the restrictions—marking a significant victory for transgender students and a sharp rebuke to those who see capitulation as the only path forward.
