"DIAG promotes its members as "Liberals guiding our party back to reason and reality" under the banner, "Biology, not ideology," a mantra similarly embraced by the Trump administration in its crusade against trans people. DIAG's staff includes a "GenZ detransitioner" and "a lifelong progressive Democrat/agnostic feminist," among others listed on its website, and says it supports the LGB community only. The group opposes "efforts to 'fix' gay and gender nonconforming youth through gender-medicine interventions" and rejects "clinicians who profit by pathologizing typical adolescent discomfort.""
"Claiming a violation of their free speech rights, a group of Democrats is suing the state of Illinois for the right to call themselves Democrats while being transphobic. Democrats for an Informed Approach to Gender (DIAG) is a nonprofit group of current and former Democrats who think that the party is wrong to support transgender rights. The group coalesced online during the COVID pandemic as a social network of liberal parents whose children had come out as trans."

The group formed online during the COVID pandemic as a network of liberal parents with children who came out as trans. DIAG uses the slogan "Biology, not ideology" and promotes members as "Liberals guiding our party back to reason and reality." Staff listings include a "GenZ detransitioner" and a "lifelong progressive Democrat/agnostic feminist." The group says it supports the LGB community only, opposes gender-medicine interventions for youth, solicited donations in 37 states, and is suing Illinois after the state barred use of "Democrat" in its name under an obscure law.
