South Dakota Republicans are forcing #trans children to detransition

“The party of small government” is forcing doctors to refuse or to stop providing care even if treatment is in the process of being administered

HB1080 was passed 30-4 then signed into law by Republican governor Kristi Noem in efforts to drive our most at-risk youth into higher suicide rates

There is no other reason for this cruelty.

@flexghost Oh, how I wish we could move all these extremist, right wing hacks on one side of the earth, and let them govern themselves, using their extremist ways... You'd see how fast they'd start accepting Democratic laws...

@flexghost I would uproot my life to protect my child in that situation, but imagine having to make that choice? Or if you just couldn't leave!

@Tweetfiction that’s why republicans love keeping people uneducated and in poverty.

All motivated by voices these members of the American Taliban heard in their heads.

@jeber These are American Christians, not Afghan Muslims, so “Taliban” is not an appropriate term for them. “Christofascists” would be more accurate.

@flexghost Any chance of it getting held up in court?

@Twooey that’s only for student debt relief not human rights

@flexghost part 2 will be to use the forced detransition stats to "prove" trans kids don't exist

@flexghost This might be dumb, but don't we have a civil right to pursue approved medical treatment? (This would, of course, include abortion.)
Show threadM_C_B52Feb 14, 2023
@flexghost @MHowell Perhaps another question is whether the current majority on the Supreme Court believes we have any civil rights at all, other than the 2nd Amendment and any that may granted in their interpretation of the teachings of christian religion.

There is a PDF from March 2022 on the page also, but states that anyone or organization getting federal aid such as Medicaid is protected by federal law to receive or give gender-affirming care. Please share so more people know their rights and providers know how they are protected and who to report violations to.

@flexghost #AuthoritarianConservatism was defeated in World War II, but not eradicated. This year is the 75th anniversary of the passage of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Every every individual and organ of society, according to the UDHR, has a moral obligation to govern with empathy for and responsibility to human beings. Conservatism abhors #HumanRights. #ProEmpathyVoters are the solution.
