The new rule, announced by the Department of Health and Human Services Thursday, virtually bans gender-affirming care at any Medicare- or Medicaid-participating hospital, even if the care itself is not paid for with federal funds.
“So-called gender-affirming care has inflicted lasting physical and psychological damage on vulnerable young people. This is not medicine, it is malpractice,” Kennedy said. “We’re done with junk science driven by ideological pursuits, not the wellbeing of children.”
But genuine research on the complications of gender dysphoria is apparently of little import to Kennedy’s HHS, which appears fixated on the lie that transgender children have unfettered access to surgical sex changes. The truth is that they do not: virtually no sex change surgeries have been performed on transgender minors diagnosed with gender dysphoria. That decision can be made when they turn 18 and are of legal age to make the decision for themselves.
Instead, the anti-vaxxer unveiled that his agency would take “six decisive actions” intended to protect children from what he described as “surgical mutilation.”
The LGBTQ+ community has had a target on its back since Trump returned to power. The administration has taken aim at transgender athletes and fear-mongered over bathroom access, all while book bans purging LGBTQ+ friendly texts have surged around the country.
Earlier this year, the ultra-conservative brass on the Supreme Court ruled along ideological lines in U.S. v. Skrmetti that states may ban minors from receiving gender-affirming care, such as hormone treatments and puberty blockers, denying parents the control that they have clamored for.
