administration’s departm nation’s education policies … boehm dublin, california gwen everman...

February 21, 2017

The Honorable Donald J. Trump

The White House

1600 Pennsylvania Ave, NW

Washington, DC 20006

Dear President Trump,

As parents of transgender children, we were heartbroken and scared when we learned that your

Administration’s Department of Justice had dropped its objections to a nationwide hold on Obama era

protections for transgender students. You promised to be a president for all Americans, but less than 48

hours after Jeff Sessions was confirmed as Attorney General, the Department of Justice took a concrete

step to undermine equality for the LGBTQ community.

All students deserve equal access to a safe, welcoming school and a high quality education no matter who

they are and where they live. This is the value at the center of our nation’s education policies and civil

rights laws and it is a principle espoused by the 2016 guidance issued by the U.S. Departments of Justice

and Education seeking the fair and respectful treatment of transgender students in our nation’s schools

and colleges.

In communities across this country, thanks in part to this guidance, we have seen transgender students of

all ages seamlessly welcomed into their schools by friends and faculty. We have witnessed, first hand, the

success of inclusive policies that reflect the overwhelming consensus from health professionals like the

American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Psychological Association that affirming our

children's gender identities is imperative. And, as more transgender young people come out, the guidance

adopted by the Obama Administration continues to offer teachers and administrators a helpful tool in

building learning environments that allow all students to flourish.

Sadly, there remain some in our school environments who still choose to target our children for

mistreatment and violence. Many of us find ourselves in school districts or states that are considering or

have already adopted policies that single-out transgender students for discrimination. We know the

devastating impacts these policies can have. 75 percent of transgender young people report feeling unsafe

in school. One study found that more than fifty percent of transgender youth have attempted to commit

suicide at least once in their lifetime. These policies are wrong, they hurt our children, and they violate

the principle of equal protection.

We could not be prouder of our children. They have shown our families and the world a courage and

authenticity that has filled our hearts and opened our minds. Their lives enrich our homes, our schools,

and our neighborhoods. We have seen many recent, pivotal changes that signal a bright future. The Boys

Scouts of America recently changed its policy to include transgender boys in their organization, a move

that mirrors a similar longstanding policy by the Girl Scouts of America welcoming transgender girls.

The cover of National Geographic magazine featured a bright eyed, brave young transgender girl. In

contrast to these positive social changes, the decision by your Administration to undermine our legal

progress is mean-spirited and potentially threatens the wellbeing of our beloved children.

Like all parents, all we want is for our children to be healthy, safe, and loved. No young person should

wake up in the morning fearful of the school day ahead. When this guidance was issued last year, it

provided our families -- and other families like our own across the country -- with the knowledge and

security that our government was determined to protect our children from bullying and discrimination.

Please do not take that away from us. We ask you to preserve the guidance and instruct the Departments

of Justice and Education to robustly pursue every opportunity to enforce Title IX on behalf of transgender

students.
