As usual, this U.S. Representative is over the top!
Again, the proposed bill can not be found on her official website. Either her official website has a lousy search function or she changed the title of the bill etc. I recently noted here before that she is a bit sloppy! She likes to make headlines, but hard and effective work seems to be another thing.
However, she is right to attack the terrible euphemism and demagoguery of so called gender affirming care!
"... Greene pushed back against the term "gender-affirming care," and declared it to be "child abuse" and "genital mutilation." ...
Greene said gender-affirming care is "puberty blockers that cause chemical castration, teenage girls actually having their breasts chopped off, teenage boys being castrated." ..."
Greene said gender-affirming care is "puberty blockers that cause chemical castration, teenage girls actually having their breasts chopped off, teenage boys being castrated." ..."
It is indeed very peculiar that the same people who advocate "gender affirming care" would at the same time condemn e.g. wide spread female genital mutilation as practiced in Africa. Why no one asks e.g. this phony Rachel Levine (Assistant Secretary for Health for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)) about it is peculiar as well.
In my opinion, a government or other kind of review should be required before any such medical treatments of minors (e.g. a double mastectomy of a teenage girl). It should not be left solely to the parents and individual doctors to make such severe decisions in the interest of the child. Some parents and some doctors are irrational and/or crazy or have ulterior motives and that is a fact!
