And in addition, the Trump administration can go a step further and it can deprive institutions as well as state governments of federal funding when they refuse to recognize biological reality and common sense.

It should do so assuming that the administrative agencies are putting teeth in these actions. So again, the way that the government works is the executive branch, the president, sets the agenda and tells the agencies what to do. And it's the agencies then that create the guidance and enforce what the president has said in federal law. So it will be critical that the agencies

We are seeing progress, but there still is an uphill battle. My hope is that we're turning the corner on this issue. We've been fighting it for over 10 years now with regard to bathrooms, locker rooms, and more recently, eight or so years on the sports front.

I think we're turning the page, but again, we have half of the states that have adopted laws to protect women and girls in sports as an example, and these are state laws. those are being challenged and argued that they are unconstitutional.

And the very first step to take that back and to, as President Trump said, have a revolution of common sense is to, again, rid the government of DEI programs because it's a proven failure. It introduces risk, legal risk. It eliminates people advancing on the basis of merit. And it destroys unity, which President Trump has said is a high priority for him.
