Governor DeSantis Appeals Ruling on Gender-Affirming Care Ban for Minors, Cites 16-Year-Old and 'Chemical' Procedures
Jun 12, 2024, 07:51 PM
Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida has announced his decision to appeal a court ruling that struck down a law banning gender-affirming care for minors. In a series of statements, DeSantis emphasized his stance against what he terms as 'mutilating children,' arguing that performing sex changes on minors is fundamentally wrong. He questioned the use of taxpayer dollars for such procedures and reiterated that minors should not undergo such significant medical interventions. DeSantis highlighted the inconsistency of allowing sex changes while prohibiting minors from getting tattoos. In his remarks, DeSantis specifically mentioned the case of a 16-year-old and referred to the procedures as 'chemical mutilation.'
