16 Washington laws promoting Gender Mutilation of Minors
Four recent laws promoting gender mutilation of minors that have led to the rapid expansion of SBHCs in Washington State include:
Senate Bill 5689 which was passed in 2019. While this bill claimed to be about reducing bullying in schools, it was instead a bill to promote radical and harmful gender ideology in schools. Here is a quote from this bill:
“The Washington state school directors' association must collaborate with the office of the superintendent of public instruction to develop and update a model transgender student policy and procedure… under RCW 28A.642.020 to eliminate discrimination in Washington public schools on the basis of gender identity.”
Apparently, the above language requires allowing boys in girls bathrooms, girls locker rooms and girls sports. With the gender-inclusive school policies, state schools are teaching young, easily manipulated children radical gender ideology from the day they enter kindergarten. Students are being taught that it’s okay to hide things from their parents. They’re being taught lies about their identity. It’s not optional, it’s state law. Who could have known?
House Bill 1225 passed in 2021. Concerning school-based health centers. Ironically, this bill has not a single word about providing gender mutilation drugs to minors. Just that these SBHCs will be coordinated by the Washington State Department of Health – the same people that brought us the ridiculous school closures, business closures, mask mandates and shot mandates as well as the wildly inaccurate PCR tests for Covid-19.
Here are some of the comments from those opposed to this bill:
“School districts should maintain the discretion to decide whether to establish SBHCs. This bill takes away local control and gives the Department of Health (DOH) too much decision-making authority. It is unclear why nonprofit organizations need to be involved in establishing or supporting SBHCs. The DOH's process for awarding grants should take place in a subcommittee where there will be full transparency and opportunities for public comments. School districts should have final decision-making authority and be able to turn down grant funding without any ramifications.”
“Families should be in charge of their children's health care. School-based health centers cannot take the place of existing providers that families already trust to administer care to their children. School-based health centers take advantage of the lack of parental oversight and administer services without parental involvement or knowledge, especially with regard to students that are 13 years of age or older who can consent to treatment without a parent’s consent or knowledge. “
Senate Bill 5599 passed in 2023 removed parental notice or consent for gender mutilation drugs being given to minors and allows the state to not notify parents if the child thinks their parents may not be “affirming” of their choice to take gender mutilation drugs.
House Bill 2331 passed in 2024 eliminating local control of school curriculum. This bill requires the punishment of any school district that dares to defy the radical agenda of Reykdal and the legislature by banning either the Gender Mutilation curriculum or the Racial Shaming curriculum. Here is a quote: “The SPI (Reykdal) has the power to enforce state laws prohibiting discrimination by instituting corrective action, terminating the offending program, placing the school district on probation, or withholding state funds.”
“Any person aggrieved by a violation of nondiscrimination provisions, or aggrieved by the violation of any rule or guideline adopted in accordance with the nondiscrimination provisions, has a right of action in superior court for civil damages and such equitable relief as the court determines.”
“A school district board of directors (school board) may not refuse to approve, or prohibit the use of, any textbook, instructional material, supplemental instructional material, or other curriculum for student instruction on the basis that it relates to or includes the study of the role and contributions of any individual or group that is part of a protected class as established in public school nondiscrimination provision.”
Here are some of the comments from those opposed to this bill:
The idea of defunding schools up to 100 percent for unclear violations is objectionable. This bill may lead to further erosion of public school enrollment. The only way to ensure that the needs of students and communities are met is through locally determined decisions. School directors should focus on making sure that students can read rather than promoting radical ideologies.
Some books that have been widely pushed contained inappropriate content, including content of a sexual nature. Parents are not trying to ban books, they are trying to keep them away from minors.
Forty thousand families have left failing Washington schools. If policymakers keep up this politicized agenda, every school levy will fail. This bill is government overreach. No one person, even a school librarian, has the right to expose students to pornography. Efforts to insert pornography into school libraries are wrong. Children should be protected from inappropriate materials.
