dolariAnd here's why I can't move back to Texas.
This bill would essentially end all government health care coverage for trans-surgeries and medical therapies FOR ALL AGES. But on top of that, it maked those surgeons and therapy providers liable for the patients welfare FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE.
The first is essentially a ban on any surgery not paid for out of pocket, focusing mostly on government money being spent on it. This would be Medicare or anyone in any Government Job. The second will cause doctors to stop offering any trans care at all.
And it's all wrapped up in a nice little "Hey, a Doctor said the surgeries are making him money hand over fist, and they don't care about the patients asking for this stuff as long as they get their money."
Which sadly is a mindset very common in Texas.
