The Five school districts with Title IX violations, how much money do they stand to lose?

Every one of the extremists on here minimizing it as “just a bathroom policy,” claiming it’s purely a local issue, and saying everyone else is overeacting is doing so only because they sense how much the ground has shifted under their feet. Three years ago they were 100% behind requiring trans women on women’s sports teams, calling it a constitutional and human rights issue. They would have happily imposed this policy across the entire country.

That’s why Trump is making an issue of it. Every attempt to minimize is just a defensive crouch and at best a tactical retreat until they can come back later and run the board. If there were genuine interest in a long-term settlement or some form of localization there would be no need for the Trump policy.

Like it or not, Trump voters concluded that they have to win their policies everywhere if they want any hope of being able to run their own local policy. Enjoy living under the rules you’ve created.

This is only an “issue” for a small % of Trump voters. Everyone else was mostly worried about eggs or immigration.

Only the bigots thought this “issue” was worthy of burning down our democracy.

GTFO, bigot.

Less than 50% of both Rs and Ds nationwide think bathrooms are an issue.

Ds nationwide were 25%.

It’s just not an issue for the vast majority of people in extremely blue Arlington.

This article is over 7 months old. You say it’s just not an issue in Arlington but I think it is now more so since Trump had forced the issue and APS has decided to file the lawsuit.

And I don’t think it’s as unified as progressives would want, hence the don’t bring it up position of Arlington Democrats.
