‘It’s almost like society stopped caring:’ Maryland Governor Emphasizes Need to Help Men

March 27, 2025 / WASHINGTON – Growing numbers of lawmakers are expressing concern about the numerous areas in which men are lagging behind women. Studies show men have fallen behind women in 12 major areas such as health, education, homelessness, and more. (1)

During his recent State of the State address to Maryland lawmakers, democratic Governor Wes Moore recently revealed how men are dropping out the workforce, which is affecting the economic development of the state. He emphasized, “If we truly want to unleash the power of Maryland’s labor force, we need to make sure that our men and boys are all right.” These comments attracted a standing ovation among lawmakers in the audience. (2)

During a subsequent 40-minute interview on March 25, Moore further expounded on his concerns about the state of men, and shared experiences from his personal life. (3)

Governor Moore noted that over the past 30 years, there has been a move by society to address women and girls issues in the areas of education, employment, and salary. Moore emphasized that we now need to look at the data pertaining to young men and boys, in particular:

Participation in the workforce
Suicide
College enrollments
Juvenile justice system
Men as teachers and nurses

Moore worried that “I think we have stopped being curious. We have stopped caring. We have stopped asking…It’s almost like society stopped caring.” Moore then noted, men are asking, “Do you care about me and my future? Are you actually interested in removing the barriers that have, in many ways, been in front of these men and boys?”

Moore said he is making it a priority with his cabinet secretaries to focus on helping men and boys in Maryland.

SAVE calls on state and national lawmakers around the country to implement programs to overcome the challenges that men and boys face.

Dept. of Education’s Demise is Consequence Of Its Own Bias and Incompetence

Dept. of Education’s Demise is Consequence Of Its Own Bias and Incompetence

March 26, 2025 / WASHINGTON — Last week President Donald J. Trump kept a campaign promise and signed an Executive Order to dismantle the Department of Education. The Executive Order will transfer the Department of Education’s functions to other federal agencies or return the functions to the states. (1)

The Department of Education has expended over $3 trillion since its establishment in 1979. Despite per-pupil spending having increased by more than 245% during that time period (2), there has been virtually no measurable improvement in student achievement:

Math and reading scores for 13-year-olds are at the lowest level in decades. (3)

Six-in-ten fourth graders and nearly three-quarters of eighth graders are not proficient in mathematics. (4)

A number of factors contributed to the demise of the Department of Education, such as:

The 2011 “Dear Colleague” letter eviscerated due process rights of students and faculty accused of sexual misconduct. The letter discouraged cross-examination and mandated a weak “preponderance of evidence” standard of proof. The controversial policy was rescinded in 2017 by the Trump administration. (5)
The Department of Education disproportionately targeted faith-based universities. For example, in 2023 the Department of Education imposed a $37 million fine on Grand Canyon University, the largest Christian University in the country. (6)
In 2022 the Biden Administration unexpectedly announced a new Title IX Rule. The action flagrantly violated the Administrative Procedure Act, which requires advance public notice and comment for any proposed regulation. (7)
When the Biden administration released its new Title IX regulation in 2024, it changed the legal definition of sex to include “gender identity,” triggering opposition from a broad range of groups. Within weeks, 10 lawsuits had been filed to stop the new policy. (8)
The Department of Education funded numerous D.E.I. (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) programs that discriminated on the basis of race and sex. In February, it was announced that the DOE had cut $600 million in DEI grants to schools and non-profit organizations. (9)

Several lawmakers have spoken in support of Trump’s Executive Order to dismantle the Department of Education, including: (10)

Gov. Jeff Landry: “The United States spends the most on education, yet we are ranked at the bottom of nearly every poll. The time for change is NOW! Thank you President @realDonaldTrump for returning education where it belongs— the states!”
Sen. Tommy Tuberville: “The federal government doesn’t belong in the classroom, plain and simple. Promises made, promises kept.”

SAVE calls on lawmakers to support and facilitate the transition of the Department of Education’s functions and responsibilities to the states.

State Lawmakers Need to Keep Working to Oppose the ‘Gender Agenda’

WASHINGTON / March 12, 2025 — Since January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump has signed 83 Executive Orders, including ones dealing with transgender issues. (1) These Orders include:

Ordering federal agencies to only recognize a biological, binary definition of sex, (2)

Prohibiting federal money from being used to provide ”gender-affirming” care to federal inmates; and

Authorizing the Pentagon to bar transgender soldiers and sailors from serving. (3)

Executive Orders are being challenged in the Federal Courts, Including 10 lawsuits on the transgender issue. (4) and (5)

Despite these Orders, transgender advocates continue to work at the local level to advance their unscientific agenda. Parents Defending Education has developed an IndocNation Map that provides examples of school districts disregarding parental rights regarding children who undergo gender transitioning in public schools. (6) For example, the Buncombe County Schools in North Carolina has a school policy to keep gender identity of students hidden from parents. (7)

A number of state-level bills have been introduced on gender transitioning, use of bathroom facilities, and gender transitioning of children in public schools. A few examples include:

Kentucky: Senate Bill 2, which passed two weeks ago, will end hormone treatments for 67 current Kentucky inmates and prohibit the use of public funds for any future gender-affirming surgeries for transgender prisoners. (8) and (9)
West Virginia: Senate Bill 154, which recently passed the Senate, aims to restrict instruction related to sexual orientation and gender identity in public schools. The bill prohibits public school employees from providing false or misleading information to parents regarding a student’s gender identity or intention to transition. (10) and (11)
Texas: HB 3817 would make it illegal for a person to present to an employer or a governmental agency as different from their birth sex. The bill defines this as gender identity fraud. (12) and (13)

In addition, several state legislators are introducing legislation regarding persons who use opposite sex bathroom facilities, such as:

Texas: Bills (HB 239) and (SB 249) would assure that women’s locker rooms, shelters, bathrooms, and other sex separated spaces are safe and private for women. both bills are known as The Texas Woman’s Privacy Act. (14) and (15)

Other legislation concerns the use of pronouns and a parental right to know if their child is being transitioned in schools:

Oklahoma: House Bill 1361 (HB1361) prohibits students and school personnel from using certain pronouns or alternate names in certain situations. (16)
Missouri: House Bill 1085 (HB1085) prohibit public school staff from discussing sexual orientation or gender identity in the classroom. (17)

SAVE urges state lawmakers to continue to introduce bills that address these important issues.

Three Quarters of Americans Support Special Measures for Men, As Governors Continue to Speak Out

WASHINGTON / March 5, 2025 – A recent national survey shows a high level of support to address issues that are affecting men. A SAVE survey, conducted by YouGov between February 27 – 28, reveals a broad mandate from the American public to move forward in this area.

Following are the survey highlights:

Nearly three-quarters — 73% — of respondents agree that society should invest in addressing the societal challenges that men face such as higher rates of suicide, homelessness, and work fatalities.
Mental health support specifically for men (56%), homelessness prevention and support for men (54%), and reducing the stigma around men asking for help (50%) are the top three issues that respondents consider a priority,
No major differences were seen between men and women in their survey responses

A table displaying response differences by sex, race, educational level, and other variables is available online. (1)

Studies show men have fallen behind women in 12 major areas such as health, education, homelessness, and more. (2)

Lawmakers have begun to take note of a situation that many are now describing as a “crisis.” (3) Last week, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D), long-time advocate for women’s rights, issued a statement to address a range of challenges affecting young men. Whitmer promised, “I’m signing an executive directive that will make an effort to reach more young men and boost their enrollment in our higher education and skills training programs.” (4)

Other lawmakers advocating on behalf of men and boys include: Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D), Senator Josh Hawley, Missouri (R), and U.S. Representative Frederica Wilson 24th District of Florida (D). (5)

The newly established Men’s Equality Network consists of groups seeking to address the crisis of men and boys in America. (6) To date, 23 organizations have joined the Men’s Equality Network as members. (7)

We urge all lawmakers to support special measures for men through legislative action.

The Men’s Equality Network is the U.S. – based affiliate of SAVE – Stop Abusive and Violent Environments – a 501(c)3 organization working to assure due process, fairness, and equal opportunities for men. (8)

All figures, unless otherwise stated, are from YouGov Plc. Total sample size was 1,169 adults. The survey was carried out online. The figures have been weighted and are representative of all US adults (aged 18+).

Vice President Vance Speaks Out on Behalf of Men, Promises Help with Public Policy

WASHINGTON / February 26, 2025 – The recent 2024 elections brought greater awareness of the problems and concerns of men and boys. In response, Vice President JD Vance spoke out at the CPAC conference held last week in Maryland in support of placing a priority on helping men.

Vance stated, to strong audience applause:

“I think that our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge, you should try to cast aside your family, you should try to suppress what makes you a young man in the first place, and I think that my message to young men is don’t allow this broken culture to send you a message that you’re a bad person because you’re a man, because you like to tell a joke, because you like to have a beer with your friends, or because you’re competitive.” (1)

Vance concluded with this promise: “we’re going to help with our public policy to make it possible to do that.”

Other supportive comments from both Republican and Democrat lawmakers include:

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) in a recent state of the state address stated, “I will be directing my entire administration to begin implementing targeted solutions to uplift men and boys.” (2)
Senator Josh Hawley, Missouri (R): “Of all the things this country needs—stronger borders, better-paying jobs, some basic safety on our streets—above all, America needs stronger men….For America, stronger, better men are the solution.” (3)
Rep. Frederica Wilson 24th District of Florida (D): “The U.S. Commission on the Social Status of Black Men and Boys (CSSBMB) is the culmination of my work as U.S. Congresswoman to empower our Black men and boys.” (4)

Sensing a dramatic cultural shift, SAVE recently established a new “Men’s Equality Network,” consisting of groups that want to address the crisis of men and boys in America. (5) The Men’s Equality Network has already issued several press releases calling for the elimination of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs that openly discriminate against men. (6)

Studies show men have fallen behind women in 12 major areas such as health, education, homelessness, and more. (7)

SAVE calls on Democrat and Republican lawmakers to establish a Commission on Men and Boys, similar to the one currently being debated in Washington State: HB 1266 and SB 5446. (8)

Abuse Shelter Department of Justice DOGE Press Release

DOGE Alert: Corruption and Fraud on Steroids at the Dept. of Justice

DOGE Alert: Corruption and Fraud on Steroids at the Dept. of Justice

WASHINGTON / February 19, 2025 – Last September the Department of Justice announced the award of $690 million in grants by its Office on Violence Against Women (1) . Unfortunately, much of this money likely will end up being spent for unapproved purposes, or even lining the pockets of shelter managers.

The Department of Justice Audit Division conducts ongoing reviews of grantees that receive funds under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) (2). A summary of the audits conducted 2013 to 2017 identified $14.7 million spent for unsupported or unallowable expenditures. Out of 47 grantees, 72% were found to be “Generally Non-Compliant,” which means the agency failed to meet minimum standards across a broad range of indicators (3).

These alarming findings apparently were ignored by DOJ officials.

The following year, the Washington Post published, “Mice in the Couches, Mold on the Walls,” which documented long-standing problems at a Maryland abuse shelter. The shelter’s sanitary conditions had deteriorated to the point that one shelter resident declared, “It was a living hell.” (4)

Once again, the lessons of the Washington Post article fell on deaf ears.

in 2023, Tiffany Carr, former head of the Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence, was arrested for defrauding the state of $3.4 million, perversely diverting grant monies that were intended to support domestic violence shelters across the state (5).

In addition, VAWA funds are widely used to lobby state and local governments. This is a violation of the Federal Anti-Lobbying Act, which prohibits the use of federally-appropriated money for lobbying purposes. For example, the Nebraska Domestic Violence Coalition has been one of the most active groups lobbying state lawmakers. The group’s direct and indirect lobbying expenses were far in excess of their non-VAWA revenues.

These are not isolated incidents. Over the years, the corruption that pervades the domestic violence industry has been documented in disturbing detail (6, 7, 8).

Over the past many years, billions of dollars of taxpayer funds have been used for unlawful or unauthorized purposes, or lost to waste, fraud, and abuse. To end the VAWA “Culture of Corruption,” DOGE auditors need to mandate the following procedures:

Require higher levels of managerial and financial expertise among grant applicants.
Mandate that VAWA grant recipients base their programs on scientific research, not “gender ideology.”
Assure that all persons, male and female, receive assistance on a non-discriminatory basis.
In the event of a failed audit, DOJ managers should identify alternative agencies to provide services.

Governors Speak Out on Urgent Need to Lift Up Men and Boys

WASHINGTON / February 13, 2025 – Last week Maryland Governor Wes Moore, a Democrat, gave a state of the state speech in which he highlighted the problems and challenges facing men and boys in his state. Gov. Moore’s speech highlighted a range of concerns:

“And it’s not just that in Maryland, labor force participation for young men is nearly the lowest it has been in two decades.

“It’s also that suicide rates among men under 30 have risen by more than a third since 2010.

“Across the country, college attainment levels are the same now for men and boys as they were in 1964.

“And Maryland still sends youth under the age of 18 to our state prisons at twice the national rate.

“The data is telling us a clear message: We need to better understand and address what’s happening with our men and boys.” (1)

Moore concluded by promising, “I will be directing my entire administration to begin implementing targeted solutions to uplift our men and boys.” (2)

In response, lawmakers in attendance expressed their support with repeated rounds of applause and even a bi-partisan standing ovation. (3)

In addition, two other governors are making their own efforts to lift up men and boys:

Gov. Ned Lamont of Connecticut, in his state of the state address, stated, “We’re doing outreach to get more men into teaching. Statistically, boys are more likely to be the disconnected youth. A few more male mentors in the classroom – and coaching – just might help.” (4)

Gov. Spencer Cox of Utah has created a Task Force on the Wellbeing of Men and Boys to find solutions to help Utah’s men and boys lead flourishing lives. (5)

Nationwide, data reveal disturbing disparities in 12 areas such as: (6)

Education: In 2022, 6.57 million male undergraduate students, compared to 8.82 million female students, were enrolled in degree-granting postsecondary institutions,
Health: Men face a lifespan gender gap of over five years: Males: 74.8 years and Females: 80.2 years,
Victims of Violence: Men are far more likely to be victims of homicide than women. In 2023, the FBI reported that 13,789 male victims were murdered, compared to 3,849 female victims.

SAVE calls on all governors to establish a Commission on Men and Boys, similar to the one currently being debated in Washington State: HB 1266 and SB 5446. (7)

Deceptive Feminist Narrative Has Tragic Consequences for Men’s Health

Post author By Edward Bartlett

PRESS RELEASE

Robert Thompson: 301-801-0608

Deceptive Feminist Narrative Has Tragic Consequences for Men’s Health

WASHINGTON / February 10 – Seven offices of women’s health currently exist in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services:

Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health (1)
National Institutes of Health (2)
Food and Drug Administration (3)
Centers for Disease Control (4)
Health Resources and Services Administration (5)
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (6)
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (7)

But inexplicably, DHHS does not have a single office of men’s health.

Feminists claim these offices are necessary to make up for decades of the purported exclusion of women from medical research and the underfunding of women’s health research.

For example, a 1993 editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine asserted, “There is little doubt that women have been systematically excluded as subjects for study. . . most clinical trials have been heavily, if not exclusively, weighted toward men.” (8)

More recently, former First Lady Jill Biden made this claim: “Research on women’s health has been underfunded for decades, and many conditions that mostly or only affect women, or affect women differently, have received little to no attention.” (9)

But a review of the facts reveals the opposite to be true:

As early as the 1970s, women were represented in 96% clinical trials sponsored by the NIH (10).
An analysis of clinical trials conducted 1966-1990 found that women participated in 577 trials, compared to only 456 trials that included men (11).
In 1994, the National Institutes of Health began to track the number of men and women in clinical trials, which revealed that women represented 51.8% of trial enrollees, with men being 44.9% of enrollees. The sex of the remaining persons was not reported (12).

In order to compensate for the presumed exclusion of women from research, budgets for women’s health were increased dramatically. In 2000, DHHS allocated approximately $5 billion to women’s health research and education, while the budget allocation of the DHHS men’s health programs was only $963.6 million, representing a 5:1 sex imbalance (13).

By any measure, the health of men is lagging behind the health of women:

Life Expectancy: The lifespan of men is 76.1 years, compared to 81.1 years for women (14).
Suicide: Men experience suicide rates that are nearly three times higher than women: Men: 14.7/100,000 persons; Women: 5.3/100,000. (15)
Workplace: Men face 15 times the number of occupational deaths, compared to women: Men: 6.2 deaths/100,000 workers, Women: 0.4/100,000 workers. (16)

How is it possible that our society has allowed a false narrative to persist for over 30 years, resulting in millions of dollars being spent on duplicative and unaccountable women’s health programs, while ignoring the suffering and deaths of men?

Lastly, investing in our people means following the data – And the data is telling us that we need to have a greater statewide focus on supporting and elevating our men and boys.

And it’s not just that in Maryland, labor force participation for young men is nearly the lowest it has been in two decades…

It’s also that suicide rates among men under 30 have risen by more than a third since 2010.

Across the country, college attainment levels are the same now for men and boys as they were in 1964.

And Maryland still sends youth under the age of 18 to our state prisons at twice the national rate.

The data is telling us a clear message: We need to better understand and address what’s happening with our men and boys.

I want to be clear: This administration remains steadfast in our support for all Marylanders, regardless of their gender or background.

As the father of a son and a daughter, I want both of my children growing up with all of their God-honoring and God-given opportunities –

But if we want to truly unleash the power of Maryland’s labor force, we need to make sure our men and boys aren’t still falling behind.

I strongly believe our mission to uplift men and boys isn’t in conflict with our values to leave no one behind – it’s in concert with them.

In the words of the great Marylander Frederick Douglass: “It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.”

And we have already started doing exactly that – in ways that uplift our men and boys and help support the aspirations of all Marylanders.

In 2023, we launched a first-in-the-nation Service Year Option to help high school graduates find their path and purpose.

In 2024, we made sure that we rewarded our service members through policies to support both veterans and military families.

And in 2025, I will be directing my entire administration to begin implementing targeted solutions to uplift our men and boys.

White Men Targeted by FAA’s Discriminatory DEI Program

White Men Targeted by FAA’s Discriminatory DEI Program

WASHINGTON / February 5, 2025 – Recent airplane tragedies in Washington, DC and Philadelphia have placed the public spotlight on biased and discriminatory hiring practices in the airline industry. The problem can be traced back to 2011 when the Obama Administration introduced Diversity, Equity and Inclusion policies in the federal government via Executive Order 13583, “Establishing a Coordinated Government-Wide Initiative to Promote Diversity, and Inclusion in the Federal Workforce.” (1)

The Obama order targeted all federal agencies, including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). As a result, the FAA’s hiring and training process went from a skilled-based system to hire air traffic controllers, and replacing it with a new approach designed to favor one candidate over another based on race and sex. (2)

In response, a class action lawsuit was brought by the Mountain States Legal Foundation in 2019. The Brigida vs. FAA case represented more than 2,500 aspiring air traffic controllers who they said were harmed by the FAA’s discriminatory policies. (3)

For example, Andrew Brigida scored 100 per cent on his training exam, but alleged that he had been denied a position in an air traffic control tower because the FAA recruitment process favored “diverse” candidates. (4)

The FAA’s DEI program also caught the attention of 11 U.S. attorneys general. (5) In a February 2024, letter, (6) the AGs warned that DEI hiring practices within the Federal Aviation Administration were putting airline passengers in danger.

The letter argues that the FAA “must return to prioritizing safety over diversity and virtue signaling” and “should once again hire based on merit so that only the most qualified aviation experts take care of America’s air travel.” (7)

Individual airlines also implemented hiring practices that were discriminatory against men. Several lawsuits, brought by America First Legal against three of America’s largest airlines, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines and American Airlines, have all resulted in victory: (8)

Southwest Airlines agreed to end its illegal race and sex-based discrimination in all hiring and promotional processes, including all DEI quotas, benchmarks, or preferences. (9)
United Airlines likewise acknowledged that hiring and employment quotas, preferences, and set asides constitute unlawful discrimination and hinder equal employment opportunities. (10)
American Airlines also agreed to abandon the discriminatory employment practices that AFL outlined in its federal civil rights complaint. (11)

On January 22, President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order that banned DEI programs throughout the federal government, as well as for federal contracting and spending. (12) Americans must remain vigilant in rooting out all vestiges of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs in the federal government and in the airline industry.
