Target Invites Men to Use Women’s Restrooms, Fitting Rooms

Yesterday Target’s corporate office issued a statement announcing biological males who claim to female can use the women’s restrooms and fitting rooms in Target stores–and vice versa.

Target closed its statement, saying, “Everyone deserves to feel like they belong. And you’ll always be accepted, respected and welcomed at Target.”

Of course, this raises the obvious question: What about the women and children who may not feel safe or “welcomed” with a man present in the women’s restrooms or fitting rooms?

Target is using policies like this one to make political statements at the expense of its customers and employees, and it is helping advance a radical agenda that many believe gives predators a legal reason to loiter in or around restrooms and similar facilities.

If you are as appalled by this decision from Target as we are, I invite you to make your opinion known to Target. You can contact the Target store nearest you using the information below.

Kroger to Offer “Trans-Inclusive” Employment Benefits

Recently Kroger–the nation’s largest grocery store chain–announced it would begin offering “trans-inclusive” benefits to non-union employees in 2016.

Under the new policy, as of January 1, Kroger employees who disagree with their biological sex will be eligible for up to $100,000 for “gender reassignment” surgery, drug therapy, and other procedures.

The problem is Kroger appears to be caving to political pressure from relentless activists like the Human Rights Campaign–and they’re doing so at the expense of their employees. Here’s how.

In the summer of 2014 Dr. Paul McHugh, former psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins Hospital, wrote in the Wall Street Journal, (more…)

ADF: Court Precedent Says Schools Can Keep Boys Out of Girls’ Locker Rooms

MUTCD_RS-022.svgMany still find it shocking, but there is a real battle underway in America over whether or not schools must let biological males who claim to be female use women’s restrooms and locker rooms at school.

Members of the Obama administration are pushing very hard to force schools to change their restroom and locker room policies, but as John Stonestreet at the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview and as attorneys from the Alliance Defending Freedom both note, schools can–and have–successfully defeat this kind of bullying from the federal government.

Stonestreet notes,

Many parents wonder if they can do anything to stem this tide. After all, can you stop the federal government?

The Alliance Defending Freedom’s answer is a resounding “yes!”

Speaking recently on Moody Radio, the ADF’s Matt Sharp said that “If you look at what the [legal] precedent says, and what the most recent courts looking at this issue have found,” it becomes clear that “schools can have these separate facilities” for boys and girls.

Last year Alliance Defending Freedom drafted a model policy schools can adopt to protect the privacy of their students. The policy reads in part, (more…)
