HRC Article:

WASHINGTON — Last night, President Biden signed the FY25 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law, which includes a provision inserted by Speaker Mike Johnson blocking healthcare for the transgender children of military servicemembers. This provision, the first anti-LGBTQ+ federal law enacted since the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996, will rip medically necessary care from the transgender children of thousands of military families – families who make incredible sacrifices in defense of the country each and every day. The last anti-LGBTQ+ federal law that explicitly targeted military servicemembers was Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, which went into effect in 1994.

Biden’s press release:

No service member should have to decide between their family’s health care access and their call to serve our Nation.

    He’s having a conversation with you, yes.

    That’s a definite ‘no’, then. Unsurprising given your views.

      Republicans support genocide like you have done for a solid year now. Now heap on the “No, YOU support genocide by objecting to genocide” shit like you always do.

        Now heap on the “No, YOU support genocide by objecting to genocide” shit like you always do.

        You support genocide by doing everything you can to support the election of the more genocidal option. Didn’t realize “More genocide = bad” was considered a hot take before this election year, but it seems that many online simply have no real sense of morality. But hey, you got your precious Bothsides GOP administration in, so it’s a success in the end for you, huh?
