Dan Crenshaw: We’re Going to Stop Funding to Any Transgender Procedures on Minors

‘It’s a big one!’

EXCERPT:

CRENSHAW: “So there’s actually a lot we can do without ripping food from anyone or ripping away people’s Medicaid. They’re just lying. In fact, we should be criticized for not going far enough, because you’ve got to save these programs for the people that they’re intended for. You have to. And you’ve got to put them on a sustainable glide path. So he just lied. The person we’re taking it away from is the able-bodied adult with no children who refuses to work. By  the way, if they would just get a job, they could keep their Medicaid. I introduced the work requirements bill with Senator Kennedy earlier this year. That’s the big part that’s in this bill, and it only applies to the expansion population, by the way, so that’s not the poor. That’s the expansion population. Another bill I got in there, which I’m super happy about, is we’re removing federal funding, all the Medicaid funding, chip funding, ACA funding, we’re going to stop that funding to any transgender procedures on minors. It’s a big one."
