New York wants to take your right to determine your child's trans surgery


It's clear that our country has become insane as it's being run by a clandestine group of unelected Biden handlers and far-left lunatics who believe the government should have the final say over the parent in decisions made on behalf of their children. 

A new New York ballot initiative, the Equal Rights Amendment, is being criticized for its vague wording that could, and likely would prevent parents from signing off on their kid's undergoing gender camouflage surgery, aka, gender reassignment surgery. [H/T Fox News Digital.]

"Any decent lawyer will take one look at the Proposition One language and say, ‘you’ve got to be kidding me," said Greg Garvey, the executive director of the Coalition to Protect Kids. It's a New York group "dedicated to defeating the so-called Equal Rights Amendment." Garvey said this in a press statement provided to Fox News Digital.

"This ballot initiative is written so broadly and so poorly that it could cause irreparable harm to children and families. This is no soft-sounding equal rights amendment, it’s nothing less than The Parent Replacement Act."

This is exactly what this administration wants to do, and what the far-left has been aiming to do for years. The more say the government has in making personal decisions, the more power they grab. They always seem to do it with nice sounding words and rhetoric, like "a woman's right to choose," or "a threat to democracy," or "women's health care." 

It's a scam.

The New York Legislature passed the Equal Rights Amendment in January 2023, bringing the amendment to voters on the Nov. 5 ballot this year for ratification. Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) celebrated its passage last year, adding that New York would "combat discrimination" and "protect abortion access" following the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, which ended the recognition of a constitutional right to abortion.

"Here in New York, we will continue to take bold measures to protect the rights of New Yorkers, and I applaud the New York State Legislature for taking another crucial step toward enshrining the Equal Rights Amendment into the state constitution. Last year, I was proud to convene an Extraordinary Session of the legislature that led to first passage of this historic amendment, and I am grateful the amendment is on its way to being presented to voters next year," Hochul said at the time. But it's the rights, not of New Yorkers, as she put it, but the rights of government to do what they want to your child, in this case.

The proposal will reportedly codify abortion rights in the state constitution and add constitutional protections to its already existing protections regarding race and religion.

Critics correctly point out that the proposal's language is broad and would open the door to parents being kept in the dark over their child’s medical procedures, including gender reassignment surgery.

The ballot proposal will ask New York voters this November if they support adding language to the state constitution strengthening that people cannot be denied rights based on their "ethnicity, national origin, age, and disability" or sex, which includes "sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, pregnancy, pregnancy outcomes, and reproductive healthcare and autonomy." 

The 'age' part is a big problem; the biggest in the bill where parents are being discounted.
