For a year and a half, GOP lawmakers have been stealthily adding amendements to government appropriations bills, which are key to funding major government departments, to ban any federal money being used for gender transition procedures. This will dramatically curtail trans people’s access to medical care — just like the Hyde Amendment restricted abortion access, write Io Dodds and Eric Garcia.
You know you can just say you hate trans people instead of dancing around it with bullshit. I didn’t get puberty blockers, which caused permanent damage to my body and mental health. I had to get expensive surgery I was fortunate enough to be able to get in order to fix some of that. You’re causing permanent damage to trans people by denying them a reversible medication out of fear that they may have negative side effects while ignoring the negative primary effects going through the wrong puberty causes.
Stop being so fucking selfishly cruel.
