The American Civil Liberties Union plans to sue Tennessee if Lee signs it into law.
Bill sponsor Rep. William Lamberth, R-Portland, has called transition care experimental and dangerous for children. Major U.S. medical associations, such as the American Medical Association and, have supported gender transition health care as evidence-based medicine. "It has nothing to do with protecting children from unnecessary medical procedures," state Rep. Bo Mitchell, D-Nashville, said." can get their breast enhancements, their nose jobs, that's OK, but these children can't have any medical procedures?"Mitchell said the legislation was unfairly targeting transgender children, and the state would have to answer for it in court.
Good
ban child mutilation world wide.
righteous move.
At least one state is protecting children…
But isn't one of current cannons of the Tea Party, Parental power, Control and absolute say so? Again it seems that there are rules they support for some but not for all. They do know how rules and laws work in a democracy, correct?
More good news. This nonsense needs to be stopped in its tracks.
I hope more states follow your bill! We need to PROTECT OUR YOUNG MINDS FROM THESE SICK PEOPLE! They should be charged with CHILD ABUSE FOR PEDDLING THIS GARBAGE!
This is how it should work. States create their own laws based on their values. Feds need to f-off.
Good. I feel like there should be a minor exception for people who actually have real problems requiring hormone therapies and surgery, but those are such rare cases it would be abused. Probably best for people to become adults and make their own health decisions.
MAKE THAT A LAW IN ALL 50 STATES!
'Tennessee bill prohibits [child abuse].' I fixed your post.
Protecting children- good!
I never thought I'd see the day when 'no sex change for minors' needed to BE a law, much less was viewed by the press as a controversial law.
Politicians determining medical pathways? Obviously, they have no education or experience that qualifies them to do so. These states are small theocracies opening within a supposed democracy.
Thats a great thing. The pedophile elites have been really going after children hard.
You mean the drugs they use for chemically castrating pedophiles? That your propagandizing to children
Applauding Tennessee here.
Good.
Deep
Shame you even have to have a freekin bill these are really the end days. Accept Jesus now while you still can,
Excellent, protecting children from medically unnecessary nonsense is what we should be doing.
