CWA in the News: How Trump Learned to Embrace the Transgender Culture Wars

Penny Nance and Doreen Denny lend crucial voices to a timely article in the Daily Wire, “How Trump Learned To Embrace The Transgender Culture Wars.”

The article spotlights the rise of the cultural battle over trangenderism, how CWA has been at the forefront among conservatives educating and advocating on these issues, and how they have become central issues in this election. 

“I think it was a lack of awareness at the severity of what was happening,” explained Doreen Denny, a longtime adviser for Concerned Women for America (CWA), a conservative Christian organization that has been sounding the alarm on gender issues for many years.

“The trend was already there,” she said. “Nothing we were discussing was hypothetical. Every situation that we were presenting, whether it be the domestic violence shelters, in women’s prisons, in sports, or in private spaces, they were already happening.”

“It could be a decisive issue for the election,” Nance, the CEO and President of Concerned Women for America, told The Daily Wire. “If Republicans are brave enough to stand up for young women, then they will be rewarded by women voters, Republican, Democrat, and Independent.”

The article also highlights President Trump’s willingness to sign CWA’s Presidential Promise

In July 2023, Trump signed Concerned Women for America’s presidential pledge to uphold the dignity of women and motherhood.

The pledge was very clear: “Only women can be pregnant and bear children. Only women can be mothers…My administration will focus on affirming sex-based distinctions that protect women in every area, such as shelters, prisons, housing, health care, defense, education, and sports.”

CWA has been in this battle since before many Americans even knew there was a battle to be fought, and we will continue to advocate for the protection of women and girls in their private spaces and on their playing fields.
