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.
They feel the same way about Teh Ghey, but they realized they more or lost that culture war once gay marriage was the law of the land - at least for now - so they pivoted to focusing on trans like a laser beam. I don’t think it is an accident that they started obsessing over where people poop almost right after gay marriage was a done deal.
