EXCLUSIVE: Americans Don’t Want Tax Dollars To Pay For Transgender Procedures, Poll Shows

Americans do not want their federal tax dollars paying for transgender medical procedures, new polling shows.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Even 60% of women, who consistently lean Democrat, agreed they do not want tax dollars going toward medical “gender transitions.”

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.
