Dear Colleague, 


We are excited to share the latest commentary from the DeVos Center for Religion and Civil Society and its allies:




Biden’s Latest Proposal Would Force Insurers to Pay for Gender ‘Transition’ <[link removed]>
Dr. Jay Richards and Jared Eckert
The Daily Signal
President Joe Biden has sought to inject gender ideology into our laws since his first day in office. He might prefer a massive bill like the Equality Act that elevates the categories of “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” to status of race and sex. But that effort has stalled in the Senate.


Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Bill Hits Target: Gender Ideology Harms Kids <[link removed]>

Dr. Jay Richards and Jared Eckert
The Daily Signal
Elementary school students would be not be harmed, but protected from gender ideology indoctrination in schools in Florida by the proposed Parental Rights in Education bill before the Florida Legislature.


California Schools Can Change Students‘ Gender Categories Without Parent Consent <[link removed]>
Dov Fisher
The Daily Signal
Here in the state of California, school personnel or mental health workers partnering with schools, now have authority—solely based on a child’s request, regardless of age—to change a child’s gender category in the California Data System without parental knowledge or consent. This betrays parental trust no matter religious or non-religious affiliation.
