Vermont to allow tax payer funded transgender reassignment surgeries for children

Vermont health insurance regulators are planning to tweak Medicaid rules so transgender youth no longer have to wait until age 21 to seek gender-affirming surgery.
The changes are aimed at removing barriers for people seeking a suite of surgeries in order to alleviate gender dysphoria, a conflict between a person's gender identity and physical gender, said Nissa James, policy director for the Department of Vermont Health Access.
quote:
Gender-affirming surgeries covered by Medicaid include 16 types of genital surgery, as well as breast augmentation or mastectomy, a surgery that removes the whole breast.
The new rule, proposed at the end of May, eliminates an age minimum and allows youths under 18 to get surgeries with informed consent from a parent or guardian.
Nearly a quarter of all Vermonters, and 50 percent of Vermonters under the age of 18, rely on Medicaid for health insurance, according to the Department of Health.

These surgeries are life-saving, said Dana Kaplan, executive director of Outright Vermont, an organization that supports LGBTQ youth.
Gender identity develops as young as three, he said.
"Here is an opportunity to say you can live the life that is authentically yours," he said. "Why would we get in the way of that?"

Let's just wipe Vermont off the face of the earth. Literally no one would notice.

I blame the medical field for being silent on this issue. None of them have the fortitude to stand up to this child abuse.

When the New World Order pays you off, you push whatever agenda they tell you to(or stay silent on what they tell you to)

BCBS and I'm sure some of the other major insurance companies will cover treatments/etc to transition, but won't cover IVF. WTF???

Yeah, that shocked me as well. I thought VT always led the country when it came to wealth and income metrics

Is this correct? I always thought Vermont a very well to do state with a high cost of living.

Yep, Vermont is doomed. Looks like white trash is taking over

Very brave
I wonder if the disfigured children will be able to sue when they’re adults. Should be fun too see how this plays out

That picture is so cringeworthy. Poor kid. He is going to kill everyone in that picture one day for what they are doing to him

When you give shite for free for long enough, people start sucking at the teet. When people suck at the teet long enough, it becomes a generational habit.
Don't feed the animals
The statement liberals make in loving care at national parks somehow doesn't register with them for humans. Humans with free shite end up like animals for the same reason that animals fed by humans lose their ability to survive in the wild.

Burlington is loaded with poor people. Very high poverty rate

Was this voted on by the Vermont legislature or was this some sort of administrative fiat thing? I'm just trying to figure out who or whom should be taken out , hog whipped, disemboweled , hung and quartered for legalizing child abuse.
