Texas Scorecard by  Will Biagini   | June 11, 2024

This is Texas’ latest effort to fight back against radical gender ideology.

The state of Texas has sued the Biden administration to stop a new rule forcing doctors to perform gender mutilation procedures from going into effect.

Specifically, Attorney General Ken Paxton, along with the state of Montana, filed the lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, its Secretary Xavier Becerra, and others in the Biden administration.

The new rule adopted by HHS aims to force states to pay for gender mutilation surgeries through Medicaid programs and would require doctors to carry out gender surgeries regardless of any state law against the practice.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
If SCOTUS ruled that the Federal Government can't force states to allow abortion, by overturning Roe, then it stands to reason that the Federal Government cannot compel any medical procedure.

There is no overwhelming public safety issue here that might be used as an excuse.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
