Ken Paxton’s settlement requires Texas Children’s Hospital to create a “detransition clinic,” pay $10 million, and remove physicians while the hospital says it complied with the law.
If they put too much financial pressure on the hospital and there is a sizable economic downturn then the hospital may have to close and their punitive measures will blow up in their face leaving the area short much needed medical care.
This may not be over. These kinds of attacks on human rights can have serious repercussions they aren’t prepared to address.
Texas is another bastion of Third World country behavior. Compassion has left the government entirely in the state of Texas.
That is the danger. Texas is using punishment as policy, and the damage will not stop with trans children — it can hollow out the medical care entire communities depend on.
That is just so horrific and disgusting and it has to be illegal in some fashion. Hopefully they legal eagles will find a way to get rid of this. I have never voted republican but it seems like republicans have really gone into the deep dark depths of disturbing beliefs.
That is exactly what this is: horrific, disgusting, and state-driven. Texas is forcing anti-trans ideology into medicine, then pretending the violence is care.

I really hope California doesn't get a republican governor because he may try to do that here. Democrats don't want that to happen.
That fear is real. Once Republicans get state power, they use it to turn cruelty into law — and trans children become the target.
