President Biden proudly promoted transgender policies and programs during his administration and it cost taxpayers more than $100 million. Some of the money was just recently flowing out of government coffers to pay initiatives including an ongoing breast cancer screening pilot program for men who identify as women, which comes with a price tag of $420,386. Nearly $900,000 in taxpayer money was spent constructing gender-neutral restrooms inside the Reagan Building.The National Institutes of Health spent $1.12 million for a single gender-neutral bathroom on the first floor of a building on its Bethesda, Maryland campus. The design fees added up to $123,320. The government paid more than $1 million in addition to that for the construction of the bathroom.Another $1 million was spent helping New York convert the men’s and women’s bathrooms at Letchworth State Park into gender-neutral restrooms, which, according to the grant summary, “will address a changing view of gender concerns.”The State Department, for example, spent $50,000 in Hyderabad and Chennai, India, “to sensitize employees of corporate entities,” to transgender people in the workplace. In 2023, the National Endowment for the Arts gave $25,000 to the National Queer Arts Festival in San Francisco.Children’s Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, for example, received $1.7 million in federal funding for an ongoing study of blood clot risks in transgender adolescents and young adults who receive hormone therapy. The study describes hormone therapy, which can cause irreversible changes, as “one of the most effective interventions for treating gender dysphoria” in transgender youth.The NIH provided Emory University with $5 million to study transgender women, who are biological men, living with HIV. --https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/feb/5/biden-pumped-100m-transgender-projects-like-pricey/?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS
