In late February, over 80 House Democrats sent a letter to President Trump demanding that he rescind his recent Executive Order that restricts children and teenagers from accessing puberty blockers, opposite-sex hormones, double mastectomies, and other medical interventions euphemistically referred to as “gender affirming care.”

 

House Democrats just demonstrated how profoundly out of touch the party is with their own voters, with the country as a whole, and with reality. This Executive Order is the only action the Trump administration has taken since January 20 that has solid majority support among Democrats (54% of Democrats in a recent New York Times poll). We know that minors cannot give meaningful consent to medical interventions that permanently damage their health, including by causing sterility and sexual dysfunction, and for which there is not a shred of credible evidence of any benefit. We know that there’s nothing compassionate or kind about making lifelong medical patients out of healthy children in an effort to lock them into an adolescent “identity.”
