ND representative falsely claims health care providers transition as many kids as possible for profi

North Dakota State Rep. Bill Tveit (R-Hazen) is sponsoring a questionable bill that makes it a felony for doctors to aid in a minor’s transition because he believes health care providers are trying to transition as many kids as possible for a profit.

“This bill is concerned about our ‘trusted’ health care systems seeing dollar signs, seeing an opportunity to cash in on this fad, if I may use that term, and maybe cash in again when realization sets in and these young, vulnerable victims have hopes for and seek gruesome, nearly impossible reversible procedures,” Tveit said Wednesday when discussing the bill.

He then demeaned Sanford Health, a health care provider based in Sioux Falls, for endorsing gender-affirming care and using guidelines from the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH). He followed that by falsely accusing WPATH of “preying on our youth who seek to circumvent parental authority if needed and medically transition as many children as possible.”

House Bill 1254 is being described as anti-transgender since it prohibits procedures that supposedly aid in the mental health of trans youth. One of North Dakota’s leading pediatric endocrinology specialists, Dr. Luis Casas, testified against the bill and argued against it one of the claims that it protects children.

Bill Tveit will do any fucking thing for money, anything at all, even things he will not do for love, and he is psychically unable to conceive of any other motive which might move a person to action....

It's nice to have the warning....

They'd rather people suffer and end up killing themselves then get the help that they need. Dozens of papers in science proves it but I guess these people don't believe in science.

People were saying medical examiners were deeming every cause of death as COVID-19.

Cause: heart attack; death certificate: COVID-19.
Cause: car crash; death certificate: COVID-19.
Cause: kidney failure; death certificate: COVID-19.
And so on.

They were never quite able to explain why anyone would do that, or what was in it for the doctors doing it, other than losing their licenses due to medical fraud. But facts don’t mean anything to those shitheads.

Bill Tveit, you do realize that republicans are against abortion because it reduces the number of children that they can molest.

Right?

Just a theory like yours. ???
