Texas Children's Hospital will shortly be stopping "gender-affirming" care for children:
CEO Mark Wallace says the hospital will be modifying their gender-affirming care over the next several months to be compliant with Senate Bill 14. Once signed, that will go into effect in September….
Texas Children's Hospitals will no longer offer hormone therapy and other transgender care for minor children.
"We will work with patients and their families to manage the discontinuation of hormone therapies, or source appropriate care outside of Texas," the email said.
Wallace added that the hospital will continue to provide psychological care that is permissible under the new law.
Just last week, Attorney General Ken Paxton announced an investigation into TCH over what he says was illegal transgender care being offered.
"I've been clear that any gender transitioning procedures that hurt our children constitute child abuse under Texas law. Children are not to be treated as science experiments," a portion of Paxton's statement reads.
If you've read this testimony from a whistleblower there, you'll appreciate that this is very good news for Texan children.
