The Trump administration is investigating reports that transgender dolls are being included in Minnesota schools, and is threatening to strip the state of federal funding if it finds evidence of wrongdoing, but the Minnesota Department of Education disputes the claims, saying they have found no information about such items being used in classrooms. The investigation is part of a broader effort by the administration to restrict LGBTQ+ content in educational materials. However, the MDE says it has followed all applicable laws and regulations regarding inclusivity in schools.
