The guidance, which was instated by former President Barack Obama under Title IX protections last May, let transgender students use bathrooms and locker rooms corresponding with their gender identity, and threatened to withhold federal funding for schools that did not comply. Trump rescinded the guidelines on Wednesday, arguing that states and public schools should have the authority to make their own decisions without federal interference.

"#Lgbtq students need to know we support them. Share your support to #protecttransyouth at glsen.org/100days & put #KindnessInAction Glsen," Beyonce wrote.
