The Evidence Problem At The Heart Of Biden’s Trans Rule

This is part two of a Daily Wire series exposing the Biden administration’s previously unreported efforts to enact radical anti-family polic

Pro-trans activists told a Biden official she had her facts wrong. That didn't stop her.

In April 2024, the Biden administration issued a rule pressing state child welfare agencies to stock their systems with foster homes that would “affirm” a child’s “gender identity,” insisting it was the best way to protect children’s mental health.

Less than a month prior, Biden officials were scrambling to find data to support their claim.

“I’m on a tight deadline and need to provide data on why LGBTQI+ children and youth are overrepresented in child welfare,” Julie Kruse, the Biden administration’s Senior Advisor for LGBTQI+ Initiatives at the Administration for Children and Families, wrote in an email to transgender activists unearthed by The Daily Wire.

“There are so many great surveys on disproportionality of negative experiences, WHILE these youth are in care but less quantitative data I’ve been able to find on family rejection and other factors that led a disproportionate number of LGBTQI+ youth to be in foster care in the first case.”

Kruse and others in the administration pushed the rule to fix what they believed was a massive problem with foster care: a dangerously high number of teens were entering the system because their parents did not accept their gender or sexual identity. The rule’s rationale pointed to “family rejection” — including refusing to use a child’s chosen pronouns or not letting a child “learn about their LGBTQ identity” — as harmful, and directed agencies to make placements that support a child’s gender identity.

Bianca Wilson, an LGBT scholar, warned Kruse that this claim wasn’t supported by data.

“I encourage you to avoid the go-to explanation of ‘family rejection’ that is often adopted by queer organizations that do so in the absence of data to support it,” Wilson wrote to Kruse in an August 28, 2023, email.
