Laws prohibiting the administration of puberty blockers, transgender hormones, or body-altering surgeries to children are under fire in a number of states. One of the organizations railing against these protections for minors is Planned Parenthood \u2014 which not-so-coincidentally profits from being a top provider<\/a> of so-called ‘gender-affirming’ care.<\/p>\n

For decades, Planned Parenthood has not only promoted and sold abortion to minor children but they are now openly promoting<\/a> the transgender agenda to minors as well. While a limited number of Planned Parenthood affiliates admit providing transgender services to minors, the organization, which normalizes<\/a> changing gender anytime you \u2018feel\u2019 like it, is willing to refer minors<\/a> for life altering drugs.<\/p>\n

In February 2023, Dr. Robyn Schickler<\/a>, Chief Medical Officer for Planned Parenthood of Southwest and Central Florida<\/a> (PPSWCF), told<\/a> Governing.com that PPSWCF provided \u201cestrogen and testosterone hormone therapy to approximately 1,900 patients a year, including minors as young as 14 with parental consent…” Months later, Planned Parenthood vowed<\/a> to fight SB254<\/a> because, according to Planned Parenthood,<\/a> the legislation “bans gender-affirming care for minors and places severe restrictions on GAC for adults.”<\/p>\n

A press release<\/a> issued by the Planned Parenthood affiliate’s political arm described the law as “extreme harm to minors in Florida by making it illegal for providers to prescribe them puberty blockers or hormone therapy in the state.” CEO, Planned Parenthood of Southwest and Central Florida piled on by calling the legislation “bigotry masquerading as public policy.”<\/p>\n

Florida lawmakers have voted in favor of a new bill which would mean a complete ban on gender affirming procedures performed on teens. <\/p>\n

The new bill also seeks to revoke the license of doctors who continue to prescribe hormones, puberty blockers and perform gender reassignment\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/V2bPoqFTWG<\/a><\/p>\n
