A pro-family coalition is pressing the Trump administration to issue an executive order that safeguards the religious freedom and parental rights of Christian parents and foster parents against aggressive gender ideology policies.

A coalition of pro-family and pro-child groups recently met with the White House Domestic Policy Council to push for an executive order protecting Christians from discrimination in foster care and custody cases.
Several states (including Colorado, Massachusetts, Vermont, Oregon, Washington, and California) require foster and adoptive parents to affirm a child’s same-sex attraction or transgender identity, effectively excluding Bible-believing Christians.
Federal 2024 HHS regulations give preferential treatment to “gender-affirming” organizations in foster care placements, disadvantaging those who affirm biological sex and putting Christian families at a disadvantage.
Christian parents risk losing custody of their children simply for refusing to affirm transgender identities, even without any evidence of abuse — with heartbreaking real-world examples of children being removed by state agencies.
A recent HHS peer-reviewed report highlights the significant, long-term harms of transgender medical interventions like puberty blockers and hormones on minors, underscoring why such affirmation mandates are dangerous and misguided.
The proposed executive order would explicitly affirm parents’ constitutional right to raise children according to their religious beliefs, repeal obstructive federal foster care rules, and prevent federal funding from going to groups that remove kids from non-affirming parents or help children hide their struggles from parents.
Leaders warn that many cases involve sealed records, allowing what amounts to government “kidnapping” of children from loving Christian homes without public awareness.
The push reflects a broader defense of biblical truth, family sanctity, and biological reality against “woke” government overreach that threatens religious liberty.
