First
the Filthy
*Obama Administration began pressuring public school systems.
If the school systems wanted to keep federal money coming in, they
needed to allow boys to use the girls’ bathroom if the boys decided
they were girls. Parents did not like it, but in suburban Northern
Virginia, the school board told the parents to go to hell and told the
boys to get on in the girls’ bathroom if they wanted.
While
the wording of the newly-proposed regulation doesn’t technically force
insurance companies to start paying for gender reassignment surgeries,
it does say that HHS would investigate and sue insurers if they refused
to pay for them.
Well, now the Obama Administration is coming after insurance companies.
Cover sex reassignment surgeries or get sued is what is going to happen.
In other words, Obamacare is not a vehicle for affordable healthcare,
but rather a vehicle for “civil” rights activists to use to pressure
private companies and use tax payer dollars.
Never mind that transgenderism is a mental health issue. It is only a
matter of time before the Obama Administration decides to cut off any
funding and go after any psychiatrist who tries to help someone through
the difficult mental issues surrounding transgenderism.

Sorry but no cigar. The laws in question long predate Obama.
ReplyDeleteThe requirement to allow students to use the washroom that corresponds to their gender is based on Title Ix - the EEOC has said that forcing transgendered students to use unisex washrooms rather than the public facility constitutes discrimination based on sex and is prohibited under the Civil rights act of 1964.
For the record, it's not just the EEOC or the US Department of Education but the courts back it as well (and they're applying long standing law in the process).
