President JoeBiden versus GOP-led states on trans surgeries and puberty blockers
President Joe Biden speaks about student loan debt relief at Delaware State University, Friday, Oct. 21, 2022, in Dover, Del. took aim at Republican-led efforts to limit access to puberty blockers and gender transition surgeries for minors over the weekend, calling them"immoral."
The comments are the latest in a series of clashes over transgender rights between the Biden administration and state GOP lawmakers, who have argued the treatments are dangerous and may cause irreversible changes in minors. Biden did not specify if he believes minors should also have the same access to these treatments as adults, but his comments reflect a number of actions that his administration has taken to protect access to transition-related treatment. Earlier this year, the Justice Department"I think it's really important that we continue to speak out about the basic fundamental rights of all human beings," Biden said.
