Joe Biden’s Department of Agriculture is planning to withhold funding for school lunch programs, effectively forcing poorest children in America to starve unless public schools agree to groom students into a lifestyle of transgenderism / LGBT
The Biden administration is poised to deny free school lunch funding from a Florida Christian school that refuses to comply with the administration's LGBT mandates, despite the school's qualification for a religious exemption.

Grant Park Christian Academy in Tampa, Fla., represented by Alliance Defending Freedom, is suing President Joe Biden and Florida agriculture commissioner Nikki Fried for enforcing the Biden administration requirement that schools comply with its LGBT mandates or lose federal school lunch funding.

In May, the Biden administration redefined the meaning of "sex" in Title IX to include sexual orientation and gender identity, forcing schools to permit transgender students to use male or female bathrooms and play sports with either sex in order to receive National School Lunch Program funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. More than half of state attorneys general rejected the memorandum, with Florida attorney general Ashley Moody saying the Biden administration was "using hungry children to advance a political agenda," the Washington Free Beacon reported.

The Florida school refused to substitute gender identity for biological sex, costing them their ability to feed two meals and snacks daily to their 56 students when the fall semester starts. If Grant Park’s application is not approved by Aug. 10, the school will not be reimbursed for the meals it serves students. ADF legal counsel Erica Steinmiller-Perdomo said Fried should not block Grant Park’s school lunch funding, as Title IX provides a religious exemption.
"For five years, this Christian school has received funding to provide nutritious meals to dozens of low-income children in the community," Steinmiller-Perdomo said. "Commissioner Fried and the Biden administration are trying to rewrite the law and ignore the exemption in an attempt to force this school to choose between violating its religious beliefs or providing lunches to children."

Biden wants boys in the girls locker room, and vice versa
When he signed the Parental Rights in Education Act into law, DeSantis remarked that it was necessary in order to stop Democrats and other far-left extremists from imposing their “radical left agenda” to “sexualize” children with “instruction at the earliest levels” of education.
Multi-national corporations, leftist politicians and others balked at the bill, blasting it as an effort by conservatives to stop children from becoming their “true selves.” And in typical fashion, these same leftists are now trying to use food and the threat of starvation as a weapon to regain access to children.
The Biden USDA’s new “guidance” explains that certain conditions will need to be met in order to continue receiving school lunch funding. One of them is to end “segregation” of bathrooms and locker rooms based on biological sex, allowing “transgender children” to use whichever they want.
Diaz explained point-blank that implementing this as Biden’s USDA is demanding “would end up allowing biological males who identify as females to access female bathrooms and locker rooms, assign biological males who identify as female to female rooms on school trips.”
“We’re not going to allow that in Florida,” he added. “We’re going to protect our children.”
“We have a law and we’re going to stand by it and protect it,” Diaz went on to state. “Gov. DeSantis is leading the way on that, and these federal guidances and regulations are not law. In fact, there are cases pending on that. So, we’re going to put a stop to that and protect our kids here in our state.”
Pollack responded that the Biden regime’s agenda is basically one of: turn your schools into transgender factories or starve to death. This is the state of American politics in 2022.
“They’re going to hurt the most vulnerable, poorest kids in America, because they want to drive home this gender ideology to kids who don’t know what day of the week it is yet,” Pollack added.
“We’re talking kindergarten through whatever. So how is that even humane?”
It was Florida Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services Nicki Fried, a Democrat, who reportedly sent out a “misguided notice,” to quote Diaz, about the changes being made within Biden’s USDA. Diaz says no matter what Biden tries to do with this guidance change, it is not law and thus cannot be enforced.
“Nothing legally forces [schools] to allow biological males who identify as female to compete on female sports teams or any of those other things,” he added.
