<p>Americans do not want their federal tax dollars paying for transgender medical procedures, new polling shows.</p>
<p>A significant majority, 66% of Americans, say federal tax dollars should not go toward “gender transition” procedures such as surgeries, cross-sex hormones, or puberty blockers, according to a new Cygnal poll from the American Principles Project provided exclusively to The Daily Wire.</p>
<p>The poll found that if an American voter knows a Democrat candidate supports using tax dollars to pay for “gender transition” procedures, 52% of those voters will vote Republican over that Democrat candidate.</p>
<p>Democrats initially held a one-point lead in the poll on a 2026 congressional midterm ballot, but when the poll-takers were informed the Democrat supports using tax dollars to pay for “gender transition” procedures, the electorate moved a net 14 points toward the Republican candidate.</p>
<p>Even 42% of Democrats and 43% of Kamala Harris voters said tax dollars should not be spent on “gender transitions,” the poll found. About two thirds, 66% of swing voters, said so as well.</p>
<p>Even 60% of women, who consistently lean Democrat, agreed they do not want tax dollars going toward medical “gender transitions.”</p>
<p>Majorities of black and Hispanic Americans, parents as well as unmarried men and women, and urban and suburban voters agreed as well, the poll showed.</p>

<p>“This poll is proof of what we’ve known for a long time – the majority of Americans do not want their tax dollars being spent on gender transitions,” Terry Schilling, president of the American Principles Project, said in a statement to The Daily Wire.</p>
<p>“I am glad that President Trump has already begun to take action on this popular, commonsense policy, but now it’s time for Congress to make the ban on federal funding for gender transitions permanent,” Schilling said.</p>
<p>Gender ideology in schools, transgender drugs and surgeries on minors, trans-identifying males in women’s sports and prisons all became hot button issues during the election cycle.</p>
<p>President Donald Trump’s most effective campaign ad in the past election cycle highlighted Harris’ support for taxpayer-funded transgender medical services for prisoners.</p>
<p>“Kamala is for they/them. President Trump is for you,” the ad <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-exposed-kamalas-radical-stances-on-gender-americans-voted-against-it" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>.</p>
<p>The ad aired across the nation, including during football games. Trump advisors <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-exposed-kamalas-radical-stances-on-gender-americans-voted-against-it" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> the message reached suburban women, who were also being hammered with Democrats’ aggressive abortion ads.</p>
<p>Democrats are struggling to find a cohesive messaging strategy after they were walloped in the November election, losing every swing state to Trump.</p>
<p>However, some Democrats are already reading the room. California Governor Gavin Newsom backed away from his previous embrace of transgender issues on his podcast last month, calling men in women’s sports “deeply unfair.”</p>
