Block the "Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance" Rule

To: Rep. Owens, Sen. Lee, Pres. Trump, Sen. Curtis

From: A verified voter in West Jordan, UT

June 10

Oppose the Trump administration's proposed "Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance" rule and use every tool available to block it. This 400-page rule, jointly proposed by 42 federal agencies, would weaponize the entire federal grants framework to erase transgender people from public life. Any institution that acknowledges transgender people exist — through HR policies, healthcare, bathroom access, or name-change processes — could lose federal funding entirely. The real-world damage is already happening before this rule even takes effect. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children was told to deadname transgender children in missing persons reports. RAINN scrubbed its LGBTQ+ survivor support pages. More than 40 hospitals have stopped providing gender-affirming care to transgender youth. This rule would lock that overcompliance into binding federal policy across every hospital, university, school district, and nonprofit in the country. Unlike executive orders, this rule would take significant work to reverse. The public comment period closes July 13, 2026. There is still time to act. Speak out against this rule, submit formal opposition during the comment period, and push back on every agency that signed onto it.
