BREAKING: APP Statement on Trump’s Child Sex Change Ban
Washington, D.C. – August 11, 2026
APP President Terry Schilling released the following statement:
“President Trump has finally shut down the flow of Medicaid money into child gender transitions, and it’s about time someone in Washington put kids and families first. No hardworking American should be forced to bankroll irreversible hormones and surgeries that carve up healthy young bodies under the banner of a radical ideology.
The American Principles Project stands firmly with the Trump administration and will keep fighting until this barbaric practice is banned nationwide.”
