Virginia Democrat launches bill to prosecute parents who do not 'affirm' children's 'gender identity'Post Millennial, Oct 14, 2022
A Democratic Virginia lawmaker has announced new legislation that would give the state the ability to investigate and prosecute parents who refuse to affirm their child's "gender identity."
On Sept. 16, Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin reversed the state's school policies which allowed for children's gender transitions to be hidden from parents and for students to be placed in sex-segregated environments based on how they identify, instead of their biology.
Just a month later, progressive delegate Elizabeth Guzman announced that she would introduce a bill that would hold parents criminally liable for refusing to treat their children as the opposite sex if they identify as such.
The Democratic delegate's bill would expand the state's definition of child abuse and neglect to include parents not "affirming" their children's "gender identity." According to Guzman, this is reason enough to not only conduct a Child Protective Services (CPS) investigation, but also a police investigation.
Guzman threatened that these investigations could lead to parents catching felony charges, and could "harm your employment."
