Fed funding of pediatrics group questioned over its gender ideology stance

(The Center Square) – Parental rights group the American Parents Coalition is urging Congress to review federal funding of the American Academy of Pediatrics, alleging that the organization prioritizes politics and gender ideology before children’s health while using tax dollars.

Executive director of American Parents Coalition Alleigh Marré told The Center Square that “President [Donald] Trump’s executive order directing agencies to cut federal funding related to transgender medical interventions on children established a clear boundary in response to mounting evidence that these interventions carry irreversible and detrimental consequences.

“Rather than reevaluate their position in light of emerging evidence and shifting international standards, the [American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)] doubled down, continuing to publicly support what it calls ‘gender affirming care,’ criticize the Administration, and engage in legal and advocacy efforts opposing these policies,” Marré said.
