23 Republicans Help Defeat Amendment to End Tax-Funded Transgender Surgeries in the Military

(CNSNews.com) - On Thursday, 23 House Republicans joined 190 Democrats to vote down the Hartzler Amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which would have stopped the Pentagon from using taxpayer dollars to pay for gender reassignment surgeries.

The amendment, proposed by Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.), would have saved an estimated $2.4 to $8.4 million dollars annually, according to the RAND corporation [1]. Money would still be permitted to go towards any mental health services sought out by transgendered service members.

Interesting...when Mrs. SZonian and me were trying to have children, we had to pay for treatments, consultations, procedures, etc. out of our own pocket.   

Now, some mental defect can enlist and have the taxpayers pay for their medically unnecessary surgeries that have absolutely no bearing on their abilities to perform their jobs?   

On its face, this is just more social engineering within the services.
