Austin Votes 10-1 to Limit Enforcement of Transgender Treatment Ban, Includes Gender-Mutilation
May 3, 2024, 04:45 PM
The Austin City Council has passed a resolution by a 10 to 1 vote that would make the enforcement of Texas' ban on gender-affirming care for minors a low priority, effectively making Austin a sanctuary city for such medical treatments, including gender-mutilation procedures and chemical castration. This decision comes in direct defiance of state laws that prohibit gender transition treatments for children. The resolution has sparked significant controversy, with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and the law's author, Representative Tom Oliverson, criticizing the council's actions. Paxton has vowed to take action against the city for its noncompliance.
