    The Trump administration has revoked a vague Obama administration order forcing taxpayer-funded schools to allow transgender students to use the bathrooms and locker rooms of their choice.

    Two federal agencies, the Department of Justice and the Department of Education, jointly issued new administrative guidance withdrawing the Obama order early Wednesday evening.

    The new guidance comes in the form of a letter. The Trump administration will now “further and more completely consider” the vexing issue of who can use which toilets in public schools, the letter indicates.

    Yep, I know it's been keeping me awake at night robbing me of sleep.

    This is a local issue, the Feds should have nothing to do with it.

    Much lasting damage has already been done. Public facilities, schools, across the country have created transgender restroom policies as a result of Obama's order. And, these policies will remain even if no longer required by the federal government. Liberal cities have created transgender bathroom laws, following Obama's order, and these laws will remain. Target and other companies will keep their new transgender policies.

    It's a good start, but it's not enough for Trump to end Obama's order
