The Trump administration is reportedly investigating whether Minnesota schools use “MyGender” transgender dolls, according to local and national coverage. The inquiry centers on allegations that the dolls are being used in classrooms, prompting federal attention to how they are presented to students and whether they are included in any state-supported education materials.
Minnesota officials dispute the premise of the investigation. The governor’s office and other state and university representatives say they are not involved with the MyGender dolls in the way described in the reports, and that no such program is currently implemented in Minnesota schools. Separate statements cited by outlets indicate that neither state agencies nor university officials are associated with the specific dolls or their use in schools.
Both reports characterize the situation as a disagreement over the existence or implementation of a program involving the MyGender dolls. The federal probe is described as ongoing or newly initiated, while Minnesota maintains that the dolls at issue are not part of any current school or university program under state control.
