UUA Responds to Anti-Trans Proclamation

On April 10, 2025 the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) published the following press release.

“In these challenging times, when trans and nonbinary people are once again being targeted by political attacks disguised as policy, our Unitarian Universalist values call us to respond with clarity and courage.

Last week, the White House issued a Presidential Proclamation that shamefully labeled gender identity as a threat to children — perpetuating harmful, baseless rhetoric that endangers trans lives and undermines families. In response, the Unitarian Universalist Association issued a powerful public statement rejecting this hateful framing and reaffirming our unwavering commitment to the safety, dignity, and sacred worth of trans and nonbinary people.

‘Affirming the inherent worthiness and belovedness of transgender people is an expression of our Unitarian Universalist faith,’ the statement reads. ‘You were not made wrong — you were made sacred, and through you we are all made more whole. ‘ “
