作为男同保守派的核心组织，共和党核心小组（Log Cabin Republicans）将不再为跨性别群体发声。这是LGBTQ平权运动中的重大分裂，而当前共和党正将反对跨性别权利作为其政治和政策核心议题。
这家颇具影响力的团体十多年前曾在社会文化包容度提升的背景下，将跨性别议题纳入其纲领。但共和党核心小组主席罗斯·亨明格告诉CNN，近年来其成员对跨性别群体的诉求愈发难以接受，包括为未成年人提供性别确认医疗保健，以及跨性别女孩和女性参与体育赛事的权利。
“这场运动已经走向了我们凭良知无法支持的方向，”亨明格说道。
该组织周四宣布将其“LGBT”使命中的“T”（跨性别）移除，此时正值男同和女同共和党人数十年来争取的权利面临新威胁，而这些挑战大多来自亨明杰所在的共和党内部。
今年早些时候，一个保守派团体联盟发起了一项倡议，旨在动摇同性婚姻的法律基础，并阻止男同女同夫妇收养子女。
与此同时，越来越多的共和党官员呼吁对代孕生育实施新限制，此举将限制LGBTQ+夫妇的生育选择。上月福克斯新闻主持人盖伊·本森和其丈夫宣布通过代孕诞下第二个女儿后，右翼内部就该议题爆发了争论。
多位基督教保守派人士在X平台上批评本森，有人将代孕比作贩卖婴儿。今年早些时候曾邀请副总统JD·万斯做客其热门播客的主持人艾丽·贝丝·斯塔基写道：“刻意创造一个注定没有母亲的小女孩，这种想法令人无法忍受，太残忍了。”
“艾丽·贝丝是极具天赋的传播者，但她就是个蠢货，”亨明格说道，“这类人一直都有，有时嗓门还更大。但我不认为他们的人数比我们这边多。”
CNN已联系斯塔基征求评论。
亨明格表示，共和党核心小组正寻求与跨性别权利运动划清界限，以期巩固其为男同和女同成员争取权益的立场。
“谈论两个人的婚姻权利，和讨论你12岁的女儿是否应该和生理男性打排球，这两者之间有着天壤之别，”他说道。
并非所有人都认同这一做法。前共和党核心小组研究所董事会成员萨拉·亨特在X平台上写道，她对这一宣布“感到失望”。她提到了变性女性凯特琳·詹纳——这位直言支持特朗普总统的人士，是美国最知名的LGBTQ+人物之一。
“直到现在，LCR（共和党核心小组）的传统一直是包容与构建大帐篷，”她写道。
美国人权运动也批评了共和党核心小组，其在一份声明中表示：“我们绝大多数人都明白，我们所有的自由都是相互交织的。”
“分裂LGBTQ+群体，让我们彼此对立，这正是反平等势力希望看到的局面，”发言人德尔菲娜·勒诺在声明中说道，“为了虚假的安全感而牺牲群体中的一部分，以期保护其余成员，这种做法在历史上从未奏效，如今也理应被摒弃。”
自2015年最高法院将同性婚姻全国合法化以来，反对同性恋权利的言论在共和党竞选活动中基本销声匿迹。特朗普在2024年获得总统提名时，共和党已在其党纲中删除了对同性婚姻的反对立场。就职以来，特朗普提拔了多位男同志进入政府要职，包括财政部长斯科特·贝森特和负责特别任务的总统特别特使理查德·格雷内尔。
共和党核心小组得益于与特朗普政府的密切关系。2021年获得该组织最高荣誉的第一夫人梅拉尼娅·特朗普，曾在2024年为该组织的筹款活动发表主旨演讲；其前主席查尔斯·莫兰如今任职于美国能源部。
但CNN在6月报道称，一旦特朗普不再掌控共和党，部分团体急于重启旧的文化战争。推动反对跨性别权利的浪潮，以及大法官克拉伦斯·托马斯在2022年最高法院推翻堕胎宪法权利的协同意见书中明确呼吁重新考虑同性婚姻全国合法化的裁决，都为这些团体注入了动力。去年，最高法院拒绝重新审视该议题。
“显然，未来的提名人和党魁在这些议题上会比特朗普更加保守，”亨明格说道，“这并不会让我们感到恐惧。”

Log Cabin Republicans, a leading group for gay conservatives, abandons transgender advocacy
2026-08-21T20:35:57.380Z / CNN
Log Cabin Republicans, a leading organization for gay conservatives, will no longer advocate for transgender people, a significant break within the LGBTQ movement as the GOP makes opposition to trans rights a political and policy priority.
The influential group added support for transgender issues to its platform more than a decade ago amid growing cultural acceptance. But Log Cabin Republicans President Ross Hemminger told CNN that in recent years his members have grown increasingly uncomfortable with the focuses of the trans community, including gender-affirming care for minors and the participation of trans girls and women in sports.
“It has gone to places we never in good conscience could get behind,” Hemminger said.
The decision announced Thursday to drop the “T” from the group’s “LGBT” mission comes as gay and lesbian Republicans face renewed threats to the rights they have spent decades fighting to secure, with those challenges largely emerging from within Hemminger’s party.
Earlier this year, a coalition of conservative groups launched an initiative aimed at challenging the legal foundations of same-sex marriage and preventing gay and lesbian couples from adopting children.
Meanwhile, a growing number of Republican officials have called for new restrictions on surrogacy births, a move that would limit family-building options for LGBTQ+ couples. Debate on the right over the issue broke out last month after Fox News personality Guy Benson and his husband announced the birth of a daughter via surrogate. It’s the couple’s second child.
Several Christian conservative figures criticized Benson on X, with some likening surrogacy to trafficking babies. Allie Beth Stuckey, the host of an influential podcast that featured Vice President JD Vance earlier this year, wrote that “the idea of purposely creating that little girl to be motherless is too much to bear. It’s cruel.”
“Allie Beth is a wildly talented communicator. She’s also a f**king idiot,” Hemminger said. “Those people have always been out there. They may be louder at times. I don’t think they have more people than our side.”
CNN has reached out to Stuckey for comment.
Hemminger said Log Cabin Republicans is seeking to distance itself from the transgender rights movement in hopes of strengthening its position to fight for its gay and lesbian members.
“There’s a big difference between talking about two people’s rights to be married and whether your 12-year-old girl should be playing volleyball against biological men,” he said.
Not everyone agreed with the approach. Sarah Hunt, a former board member of Log Cabin Institute, wrote on X she was “disappointed” by the announcement. She pointed to Caitlyn Jenner, a transgender woman and vocal supporter of President Donald Trump who is among the country’s most recognizable LGBTQ+ figures.
“Until now, LCR’s legacy has been inclusion and building a big tent,” she wrote.
The Human Rights Campaign also criticized Log Cabin Republicans, saying in a statement that “the vast majority of us understand that all our freedoms are intertwined.”
“Splitting up the LGBTQ+ community and pitting us against each other is exactly what anti-equality forces want to see happen,” spokesperson Delphine Luneau said in a statement. “Sacrificing one part of a community in the false hope that it will somehow protect the rest of it has never worked throughout history, and it’s a tactic that should be rejected again today.”
Opposition to gay rights has largely faded from Republican campaigns since the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage nationwide in 2015. Under Trump’s direction, the GOP removed objections to same-sex marriage in its party platform when he won the nomination in 2024. Since taking office, Trump has elevated several gay men to powerful positions in his administration, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Richard Grenell, a special presidential envoy for special missions.
Log Cabin Republicans has benefited from its proximity to the Trump administration. First Lady Melania Trump, the recipient of the organization’s top honor in 2021, headlined a fundraiser for the group in 2024, and its former president, Charles Moran, now serves in the US Department of Energy.
But CNN reported in June that some groups are eager to revive old cultural battles once Trump is no longer presiding over the GOP. They have been energized in part by the growing pushback to trans rights as well as Justice Clearance Thomas’ explicit calls to reconsider the ruling that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide, which he made in a concurring opinion when the court overturned the constitutional right to an abortion in 2022. Last year, the Supreme Court declined to revisit the issue.
“We’ll obviously have future nominees and party leaders who are more conservative on those issues than Donald Trump,” Hemminger said. “It’s not anything that scares us.”
