TEXAS SCORECARD-AUSTIN — While children across the state currently face chemical and surgical castration, Republican state lawmakers are refusing to protect them.
The issue of child disfigurement has taken a recent national spotlight in Texas with the case of James Younger, a 9-year-old Dallas-area boy whose mother wanted to force him—against his father’s wishes—to take sterilizing drugs and eventually castrate him.
In response, Texas legislators have considered two proposed state laws on the issue: House Bill 1399, which would prohibit medical professionals from performing certain disfiguring operations on minors (such as cutting off healthy body parts or administering sterilizing cross-sex hormones), and Senate Bill 1646, which would classify such procedures as child abuse.
Yet curiously, Republican legislators in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives have stalled the efforts—namely, State Rep. Dustin Burrows, chairman of the powerful Calendars Committee, and State Rep. Stephanie Klick, chairwoman of the Public Health Committee.
Klick has the power to determine if the two child protection bills move forward in the legislative process, and Burrows has the power to then schedule the bills for the full House chamber. more here
Just another set of Commie sickos dressed up as Repubes. 🤨
This should be a no brainer. 🤔
The Republican Party is digging it’s own grave, continually going against the people who put them into office.
Keep digging assholes, you won’t get my support except for a few exceptions who are working for their constituents.
the abuse of children in this country has risen to unprecedented heights
… & it’s all government sanctioned. from abortion to an active policy of having ‘unaccompanied’ children being imported from other countries to be turned over to the present administration to dole them out for slave labor, sexual slavery & ‘harvesting’ of their bodily fluids
farfetched? … these people are beyond no depravity.
… these people are far beyond depravity
EDIT BUTTON!!!! ….. please?
“these people are far beyond depravity”
The progressive movement is 100% invested in increasing innocent human suffering, misery and death. That is what they exist for. To serve their Dark prince. That is why the full court press on children we are seeing. Each of them trying to outdo the other and get noticed by their master.
Because Texas is a shithole state. The natives haven’t the guts to take back their own. Chicken ass losers.
I think there are a lot of hard core leftists masquerading as conservatives.
Cowardice.
izlamo delenda est …
The R’s have also tied up the Constitutional Carry issue in committee aided by the Lt. Governor (R). It’s probably dead until next session too. Texas sucks now…
WHY? I just read the text of both the House and Senate bills.
Most of it looks really good and unassailable. BUT someone crapped up the House bill by adding in there via amendment unrelated and unnecessary “controversial” anti-abortion provisions.
So my guess is… once again, conservatives are their own worst enemies.
