Trump signs executive order restricting sex-change procedures for minors
For Americans who were tired of seeing young children be mutilated under the guise of "gender affirmation surgery," Donald Trump just signed into effect a MASSIVE win.
According to Fox News, Republican President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to restrict "chemical and surgical" sex-change procedures for minors.
The order is entitled "Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation."
"Across the country today, medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions," the order said.
"This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end."
Trump's right. It really is sick how liberals convinced a portion of the population that it was a humane thing to do to let little children ruin their genitals for the rest of their lives because their parents felt like their children were born the wrong gender.
Sure, some of these children "agreed" with their parents that they wanted gender reassignment, but think about how many things you were wrong about in the first decade or so of your life.
These children aren't allowed cake for dinner because they don't know what's best for them, but we were allowing them to ruin their bodies for the rest of their lives because these children felt like they wanted the other sex's body.
A stain on our nation's history is a mild way to put it.
"Countless children soon regret that they have been mutilated and begin to grasp the horrifying tragedy that they will never be able to conceive children of their own or nurture their children through breastfeeding," the order continued. "Moreover, these vulnerable youths’ medical bills may rise throughout their lifetimes, as they are often trapped with lifelong medical complications, a losing war with their own bodies, and, tragically, sterilization."
The executive order continued, "Accordingly, it is the policy of the United States that it will not fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support the so-called ‘transition’ of a child from one sex to another, and it will rigorously enforce all laws that prohibit or limit these destructive and life-altering procedures."
Donald Trump felt so strongly about the issue that he even posted about it on social media:
"Today, it was my great honor to sign an Executive Order banning the chemical castration and medical mutilation of innocent children in the United States of America. Our Nation will no longer fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support so-called ‘gender affirming care,’ which has already ruined far too many precious lives. My Order directs Agencies to use every available means to cut off Federal financial participation in institutions which seek to provide these barbaric medical procedures, that should have never been allowed to take place!"
Mark Trammell, the executive director and general counsel of the Center for American Liberty, which is representing some detransitioners in lawsuits, celebrated the decision.
"President Trump is to be commended for his incredible leadership protecting vulnerable children from the gender industrial complex," Trammell said. "This executive order rightly distances federal agencies from the discredited World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) while also withholding federal funding from institutions that chemically and surgically mutilate kids."
"It is pathetic that Joe Biden lacked the moral and intellectual clarity to issue such an executive order, instead elevating politics over the health of vulnerable children," Trammell added.
