A federal judge in Washington on Wednesday blocked the Trump administration’s recent changes to the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program, which hit groups around the country that teach classes on healthy relationships, abstinence and contraception.

The Trump administration, he wrote “is perfectly entitled to formulate its own views about how to stem teen pregnancy — or even whether it is worth preventing at all — and to pursue policy initiatives consistent with its viewpoint. But it is not at liberty, under the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA”), to impose conditions on grant recipients that Congress did not intend or that are unreasonable or unexplained.”

    Fewer rapes and paedophiles get reported and caught when you don’t teach sex ed.

    That’s a fact.

    I wonder why the rape-paodophile administration would be trying to reduce sex ed. 🤔

      Maybe, previously, the government actually didn’t know, and wanted to do the right thing. Like before the 90s. But then we found out that, that didn’t work at all.

      And NOW, the government does know, but so does the administration. The president knows the effects, and DOESN’T want to do the right thing.

      We are in a terrible timeline. Presidential Administration of Child Predators. PACP.
