The Biden Administration Wants Taxpayers to Pay for Transgender Child Mutilation

The Biden administration is getting ready to argue that taxpayer dollars should be used to pay for children to undergo so-called “gender transitions.”

According to Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, the Biden administration believes that “all children and adults should be afforded life-saving, medically necessary care” and “payers, both public and private, should cover treatments which medical experts have determined to be medically necessary.”

Becerra revealed this position in written testimony to Rep. Mary Miller (R-Ill.), which was obtained by The Daily Caller.

This position signals that the Biden administration is prepared to go after states that are protecting children from chemical castration and surgical mutilation at the same time other countries—like the United Kingdom, Sweden, and France—are no longer embracing the practice due to the permanent negative health effects these so-called treatments cause.

Recent polling suggests that a plurality of Americans oppose transgender treatments for minors.

Taxpayer funding of sex-change medical costs is a no-go. We would not do it on a dog, why should be do it on a human being?

Who in their right mind could have opinions other than what the “experts” have? On another subject the U.S. society is tinkering on the edge I’m afraid!

Sexual mutilation is not “life saving medically necessary care”.

Actually, isn’t it called”getting spayed”?

Maybe we should start calling it that and watch the liberals heads explode.

Well, Biden is just plain evil. Everything he does is evil. Can anything good come from pure evil?

"The Joe is lost in his own kind of degenerate mind. He has no sense of what not to do."

Back in somewhat simpler times, the image of the today's biden might have appeared in humanitarian sposored television healthcare spots advising the public of the degenerative effects of a lifelong exposure to liberalism.

“life-saving, medically necessary “

or, if it’s a planet saving procedure, “because I want it”. (sterilization keeps the population down)

But if you “want” a knee replacement while collecting social security checks, you will be euthanized.

The leftist dream.

What does it take for leftists to understand that this mutilation is not only child abuse but it’s... mutilation.

If doctors were to go in and let’s say rehearse multilations on inmates with life sentences that would be railed against... but takeban innocent kid with a brain that is not fully developed and convinced him of some twisted BS... that’s Criminal.
