The last day of March this year was deemed the International Transgender Day of Visibility. We didn’t need such a designation to help us notice the trans issue. The news is saturated with it.

That day, the White House made an announcement that should have surprised no one. Regarding children who may “want to be transgender” candidate Joe Biden made a promise. He said, “I will flat out just change the law…..[E]liminate executive orders…” Conservatives warned this signaled taxpayer-funded sex changes for kids.

The White House is now making good on that pledge. On March 31st, the President stated: ”Affirming a transgender child’s identity is one of the best things a parent, teacher, or doctor can do to keep children from harm.” The Justice Department sent a letter to all state attorneys general warning them that if they prevent minors from receiving “gender affirming care,” they could be violating civil rights laws. The letter spells out four aspects of this gender-affirming care.

In order they are: social affirmation – hairstyle clothing, name, gender pronouns and bathroom use. All must be allowed according to the child’s preferred gender designation. Then, puberty-blocking hormones are given. Then, hormone therapy – testosterone for children “assigned female at birth” and estrogen “for those assigned male at birth.” And then there are the surgeries which adolescents would receive on a case-by-case basis, the most profound of which are castrations for biological boys and double mastectomies and hysterectomies for biological girls.

Someone aptly named this the “school-to-sterilization-pathway.”

Some states will not comply. Alabama Governor Kay Ivy recently signed a bill criminalizing the use of these medical procedures on children. Arkansas has also outlawed such “treatments” for minors. Texas has designated them child abuse and will prosecute parents who transition their children in this way.

States, attempting to protect children from this godless agenda, now face the full weight of the federal government acting in service of a vile, unconscionable lie.
