Trump administration rolls back Obama-era transgender health care protections

Regardless of how you feel about the change in the rule, not sure why they would choose to announce this during pride month and on the 4 year anniversary of the pulse nightclub shooting.

Washington (CNN)The Trump administration announced Friday it is eliminating an Obama-era regulation prohibiting discrimination in health care against patients who are transgender.
The move -- coming during Pride Month, an annual celebration of the LGBTQ community that takes place throughout the month of June, and on the four-year anniversary of the deadly Pulse nightclub shooting, in which 49 people were killed at a popular LGBTQ venue in Orlando -- was swiftly denounced by LGBTQ groups, which see the action as discriminatory.
Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, known as the Health Care Rights Law, "prohibits discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability in certain health programs and activities." A rule enacted in 2016 interpreted the ban on sex discrimination to include discrimination on the basis of gender identity, building on similar interpretations in other federal civil rights laws and court rulings, and termination of pregnancy.
But the US Department of Health and Human Services said in a statement Friday that it was eliminating "certain provisions of the 2016 Rule that exceeded the scope of the authority delegated by Congress in Section 1557. HHS will enforce Section 1557 by returning to the government's interpretation of sex discrimination according to the plain meaning of the word 'sex' as male or female and as determined by biology."

What does pulse night club have to do with gender dysphoria ?
I thought it was a gay club.

I did not read. But it probably is so that tax dollars do not pay for sex change operations.

Who cares? Weve already catered to these crazy lunatic groups far more than we should. No matter what we do it will never be enough.
I used to be sympathetic but I'm tired of it. Time to shut up.

Wow, crap! I almost forgot to down vote you.

Well that just doesn't sound woke at all. Biology? What kind of kookiness is that?

Crazy trannies were hijacking your right to have your way with hairy butts. You should be happy.

Do you identify as a moron? I mean, we all know objectively you are one, but maybe just trying to identify as a non-moron might help you out in life.

Mickey, the changes never went into effect
You wouldn't know from this story that the "Obama-era protections" in question were stopped by a judge in December of 2016 and never went into effect.

This is the new thing I've noticed. Everything Trump does or has plans for is being tied to that day in history that has a negative event. Do they not understand that every single day in the year has some sort of negative event that can be related? This is a lazy take and it's tiresome. This is only making the conservatives seem like the normal group so you will see a huge silent Trump/Republican vote this year.
When you silence people and make them scared to tell facts then you will get rebellion. This is at least 5x worse than the silence Hillary was creating by calling everyone deplorable.
They're even talking about how the RNC is the same time as some kkk event in Jacksonville. It doesn't matter what he does it will be tied to something. Wasn't that date going to be the same in North Carolina? Did Trump pull out of NC bc of the governor or because of this date and Jax?
I'm sure if I get bored I can go through everything Obama did and say he did it on certain days as a "dog whistle" to his supporters. Maybe I'll check out the Democrat convention and see what it's tied to.
Thank God most Americans are seeing this and noting the democrats are literally insane and wanting to try to destroy the country alongg with its history. The democratic party has turned so far left that it's not even recognizable. Obama would be a current moderate and Clinton would be a current conservative.

I've noticed lately that every day of the year is the anniversary of some event that should dissuade Trump from taking action on that day

Does this mean men who turned into women can’t get free birth control anymore?

Yep.
I guess he's suppose to research every date and see what happened before he can make a decision on whether or not to do something.
