Texas State House Representative Shawn Thierry, D-Houston, joined with Republicans to support Senate Bill 14 which would restrict gender modification in children. As a Democrat from the Houston area, Mrs. Thierry came under blistering assault from organized alphabet activists in her decision to support the House version of the Texas bill.
Facing threats, ostracization, ridicule and direct personal attacks against her, Ms. Thierry stood against the rage of the mob and voted to support the bill. Explaining her position, Representative Thierry delivered eloquent and powerful remarks on the issue to the House chamber. WATCH:
At times it feels like we are living in a dystopian era well beyond the prescient writing of George Orwell. Indeed, I think we can all feel the shift that has taken place as the battle between commonly accepted right and wrong has morphed into a spiritual battle between good and evil.
Joe Biden was installed as a one-term disposable Cloward-Piven opportunity for the most destructive elements of political activism. Every left-wing fantasy operation is now enveloping the United States and tearing at the fabric of the nation. In this era, any Democrat who stands up for moral values with an intent to protect the children becomes a mortal enemy to the tribe of wicked enterprise. Shawn Thierry should be appreciated for taking a stand against the raging mob.
TEXAS – Texas is one step closer to banning gender-affirming care for transgender minors who live in the state.
On Friday, the Texas House of Representatives voted to preliminarily advance Senate Bill 14, a measure that would prohibit the administration of puberty blockers and hormone therapy to people under 18 years old who are transitioning.
Rep. Tom Oliverson, R-Cypress, told lawmakers from the House floor that he believes gender dysphoria should be treated with counseling rather than gender-affirming care.
“In contrast to experimental medicine and surgery, professional counseling and psychotherapy is a proven alternative that helps children overcome gender dysphoria,” he told lawmakers.
The legislation is one of Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick’s priorities and has already passed the Senate.
Under the Senate version, minors currently on transition-related medical care would have to stop their treatment after the bill goes into effect in September.
The version passed Friday in the Texas House, however, would give transgender minors a period of time to wean off treatment.
Still, trangender-rights advocates say the legislation is hateful and will have a negative effect on the lives of transgender minors.
Sofia Sepulveda, the community engagement and advocacy manager with the LGBTQ advocacy group Equality Texas, said SB 14 is just one of many measures targeting people in the LGBTQ community.
“It feels like every other day there is legislation or there’s a hearing targeting the trans community,” Sepulveda told reporters Friday morning. “We are literally fighting for our lives.” (read more)
The ideological leftists have gone totally nuts on this issue.
Their activism on the mutilation of children is evil. These are not issues that can be debated in nuance and soft pastels.
Protect the children.
The mentally ill alphabet people are filled with psychosis.
