How did we as a society get to a place where mutilating children was allowed?? This e.o. shouldn't even have to be.
Trump signs executive order restricting 'chemical and surgical' sex-change procedures for minorsPresident Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order to restrict "chemical and surgical" sex-change procedures for minors.
"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, entitled "Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation," states. "This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end."
"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 continues. "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."
"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," it says.
Mark Trammell, the executive director and general counsel of the Center for American Liberty, which represents some detransitioners in lawsuits, praised Trump's action.
"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.".................
