9月1日（路透社）——唐纳德·特朗普政府周二提起了其称为首例此类诉讼，旨在阻止堪萨斯城堪萨斯分校的公立学校为跨性别学生提供性别过渡协助。
美国司法部的诉讼指控该学区通过的一项政策指示教职工在未征求家长意见的情况下，为学生制定并实施性别过渡计划。

该诉讼称，这项政策违反了联邦法律，这些法律禁止学区不让家长获取子女的相关记录，并要求学校在开展可能涉及敏感信息的评估前必须获得家长同意。
“司法部不会容忍学区为了激进的性别意识形态而肆意违反联邦法律，”司法部民权部门负责人哈米特·迪隆在一份声明中说道。
堪萨斯城堪萨斯学区此前曾表示，不认同特朗普政府指控其违反联邦法律的说法，并于周二重申其完全符合法律规定。
该学区表示，对司法部提起诉讼的决定感到失望，并将通过法律程序作出回应。作为堪萨斯州第五大学区，它在近50个校区为超过2万名学生提供服务。
堪萨斯城堪萨斯学区主管安娜·斯塔布菲尔德7月告诉NBC新闻下属电台，该学区的指导方针并未要求向家长隐瞒信息，且这只是指导意见，并非正式政策。
特朗普政府曾威胁要削减违反跨性别政策的公立学区的联邦资助，但此次诉讼是司法部首次指控学校在未获得家长同意的情况下协助学生进行性别过渡。
特朗普曾将跨性别者的性别身份称为谎言，发布了一系列旨在限制其权利的行政命令，并在一项指令中表示美国政府仅承认男性和女性两种性别。
他的政府还采取措施禁止为未成年人提供激素疗法等性别确认治疗，并取消相关联邦资助。
司法部还发起了一场运动，要求全国范围内的医疗服务机构提交接受过性别确认医疗护理的跨性别青年的相关记录。多名法官已叫停了这些行动。

Sept 1 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump’s administration on Tuesday filed what it said was the first lawsuit of its kind seeking to block public schools in Kansas City, Kansas, from facilitating gender transitioning for transgender students.
The U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit claims a policy adopted by the city’s school district directs staff to develop and implement transitioning plans for children without input from parents.

The lawsuit claims the policy violates federal laws that prohibit school districts from barring parents’ access to their children’s records and that require parents to consent before schools conduct evaluations that could reveal sensitive information.
“The department will not tolerate school districts playing fast and loose with federal law in the service of radical gender ideology,” Harmeet Dhillon, head of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, said in a statement.
The Kansas City, Kansas Public Schools has previously said it disagreed with accusations by the Trump administration that it violated federal law. It reiterated on Tuesday it was in full compliance with the law.

The school district said it was disappointed by the DOJ’s decision to sue and will respond through the legal process. The fifth-largest school district in Kansas serves over 20,000 students across nearly 50 school sites.
KCKPS Superintendent Anna Stubblefield told an NBC News affiliate in July the district’s guidance does not ask for information to be withheld from parents and that it was only guidance and not a formal policy.
The Trump administration has threatened public school districts with federal funding cuts over their transgender policies, but the lawsuit is the first by the Justice Department accusing schools of aiding in transitions without parents’ consent.
Trump has cast the gender identity of transgender people as a lie, issued a series of executive actions targeting their rights and stated in a directive that the U.S. government will recognize male and female as the only two sexes.
His administration has also taken steps to ban gender-affirming treatment such as hormone therapy for minors and eliminate federal funding for it.
The Justice Department is also waging a campaign to force healthcare providers across the country to turn over records about transgender youth who received gender-affirming medical care. Several judges have blocked those efforts.
