The Department of Defense set aside millions of dollars under the Obama, first Trump, and Biden administrations to provide services to transgender people, a Washington Examiner review of grant records has found.

The Washington Examiner identified over $5.4 million in Pentagon grants and contracts earmarked for transgender accommodations and research, with a significant portion of them funding ongoing programs. Specific expenses borne by the public on behalf of the transgender community included medical and psychological services, diversity training, health research, and research into better integrating LGBT servicemembers into the armed forces.
