A controversial bill under discussion in Maine’s state legislature proposes granting authorities the ability to remove children from parents who object to medical providers enforcing “gender-affirming care” for their children.

The bill, LD1735, clearly outlines this unprecedented authority.

In its summary, it clearly states, “The bill authorizes a court to take temporary jurisdiction because a child has been unable to obtain gender-affirming health care or gender-affirming mental health care.”

It appears that no consideration has been given to accommodate religious objections.

Parents would not have any authority over the matter; they would either be compelled to expose their children to potentially harmful and irreversible transgendering drugs and surgeries, or risk losing custody of them to the state.

If the bill is approved and enacted, Maine would align itself with other states in prioritizing the rights of the transgender movement over parental rights.

Last year, Washington implemented a law that prevents parents who are estranged from their children undergoing transgender treatment from having any influence on their medical decisions.

Similarly, California passed a law last year that requires courts to consider conflicts regarding “gender-affirming care” in custody cases, giving preference to the child’s desire for transgender treatment despite parental objections.

Additionally, New York’s Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul signed a bill into law that safeguards minors seeking transgender treatment in the state, regardless of their residency or citizenship status.

  • GFY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where do they get of would move ASAP Trans is a 100% mental disorder as per 99% of top researchers and now these idiots want to pander to it instead of getting these kids the REAL help they need?

    • If people do not stand up and fight against this perverted sick minded group, then they deserve what they get. These disgusting individuals have been trying to weaken the rights of parents for decades without any repercussions for their illegal actions. All I can say is “FAFO”!

    • Deborah, it’s more insidious than that.

      Google “Laura Aboli Transhumanism youtube” to see what’s REALLY going on.

      ONLY four minutes of eye opening commentary.

  • God help us here in America…we have lost our minds! This is child abuse directed by our government. Try truth and justice for a change…

  • Children are not intelligent enough to make a decision regarding so called “gender change.” It should really be called mutilation of a human body. God created us as either male or female and that cannot be changed.

    • I don’t think “intelligence” is the issue, but rather maturity, particularly since minor children are so susceptible to influences of peer groups and authority figures. Teens are often willing to accept the opinions of a trusted teacher or counselor at the same time they view their parents as idiots. Right now, minors aren’t allowed to get tattoos without the presence and consent of their parents are guardians, and in many states even ear piercing for any under 16 requires parental consent. Yet states think that children should be able to make even more serious, permanent, and consequential decisions of gender change. Simply ludicrous!

      • Simply manipulation of young minds and vulnerable people my dear!

        My two cent to these families and children: take them to little villages, away fro smart phones computers etc. and see how those children survive in life playing singer and dancing.

        That’s it! Try it for a year, see what happened!

      • Well, thank GOD, TEXAS passed a law banning this shit. A few others have as well. You start pushing this crap on kids, you go to jail!

    • So now the state has control of your children? Seems that is about the same thing Hillary said about ‘the village’.

  • I’m sorry but a state or government has no right to decide if a child, remember a child should have a sex change. Children need to be kids. Let them grow up before they make a life-changing event to their bodies. If a boy wants to be a girl well let him pretend till he’s old enough to decide, then he can decide. Don’t be filling kids with drugs and thoughts and surgeries that can’t be changed back.

  • So now our governing bodies are creating their own particular version of Hitler’s Youth. What’s next? Rounding up every conservative and putting them in slum compounds or camps; another of Hiter’s programs!!!!!

    • That is exactly what struck me when I read this article, Brenda. How could we, after all the deaths during WWll to end this type of thing in Europe, fall into the same mindset as the Nazi’s and Hitler’s Youth programming. I agree that chidren do not have the maturity and understanding to go through the transgender surgery or drugs. What has come of this country? Xiden and Hildabeast have already suggested that every conservative should be rounded up and sent to consentration camps for reprogramming. We are being destroyed from within which the founding fathers warned about in 1776.

      • That is why the Second Amendment was put in place. “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” So what is saying is that to stop a tyrannical government, which appears to be forming in DC, all able bodied Americans shall be allowed the freedom to own and utilize weapons that they see fit to use to sustain their freedom!

    • OK, The Demonic Satan Worshipping Evil Democrats have been calling President Trump a Dictator for sometime now, and that he’ll destroy America.?
      Look around and tell me that the Anti-American Evil Demonic Communist Democrats who spew out lies and deception against President Trump aren’t in fact the ones who are Destroying America and acting as Dictators and ruling as Hitler’s Minions.?
      CPO Bill is correct, Deadly Force is the answer now.! It’s gone on way to far and past due time to use our 2nd Amendment right to stop this bullshit or it’s just going to get worse. The Governor of New Mexico has over stepped her authority to remove the 2nd Amendment right of the citizens, Gavin Newsom of Commifornia has over stepped his authority on transgender changes to children. Anti-American Communist Biden has pushed transgender operations upon children and has over stepped his authority by acting as a Dictator, under his puppet masters Communist Muslim Obama and Soros. The FBI, CIA AND THE ATF have violated their Oath of Office. The Supreme Court is leaning far left more and more. Our own military is becoming more Woke than ever. Muslim terrorist and Chinese spies and MS13 are illegally entering our country and the Communist Democrats turn their backs on the American Citizens.!
      Either way it’s time to fight now or quit complaining and do nothing.

  • If people do not stand up and fight against this perverted sick minded group, then they deserve what they get. These disgusting individuals have been trying to weaken the rights of parents for decades without any repercussions for their illegal actions. All I can say is “FAFO”!

  • The queers trying to win again. One alternative for the parents not mentioned if the bill is passed and signed into law, seeking employment and residence in a more sane state.

  • HOW MUCH IS IT GOING TO TAKE to rip the blinders from America’s patriots and Christians that they might awaken to the fact that the 1700 founders’ Grand Experiment in Self-Government has been nothing but a Grand Failure, destined to be so from its inception.

    Self-Government!?!

    WHAT could go wrong? EVERYTHING! Just open your eyes and look around you!

    And, please, don’t respond by declaring it’s not the Constitution’s fault but rather today’s renegade presidents, legislators, and judges. Just how do you suppose America’s ended up with such civil “leaders,” in the first place? Could it have something to do with Article 6’s Christian test ban by which mandatory biblical qualifications (such as Exodus 18:21) for civil leaders were also eliminated?

    That’s right, if not for Article 6’s Christian test ban no one would have ever heard of Biden, Harris, Pelosi, AOC, the Clintons, or any of their fellow Swamp Crocodiles, disguised as both Donkeys and Elephants.

    And, by the way, you’re complicit in everything gone wrong in America if you’ve yet to repent of your constitutional idolatry.

    For evidence the Constitution is the genesis of everything gone wrong in America, see free online book “Bible Law vs. the United States Constitution: The Christian Perspective,” in which every Article and Amendment is examined by the Bible, at bible versus constitution dot org.

    • Gee Ted, what have you done to stop the communist take over of our country from the inside? Explain that and we will know how to reverse it. It all started with the draft dodgers being given amnesty. Then they were put into professorships at universities where they indoctrinated the kids of this country. That is where it started,

  • Most states require parents to provide for their children Parents should not have to pay for these treatments. this would be against all of what these relatioships stand for. after the age of 18 ,if they still feelthat way , they could take those steps. Nothave non reversal treatments.

  • The government does not control parents and their children!! Stop with this nonsense and do your jobs to help out country and quit invading our private lives!!!

  • This is always the end game for leftists. They SAY they want people to have choices, but the only choice they are really interested in is the one THEY want you to make. So, in the end they force you to do the evil they want you to do.

    Is that the kind of country you want to live in?

  • How much more Anti Constitution can Maine get. First you have, what, the Secretary of State barring President Trump from the ballot. Something that office doesn’t have the authority to do. Now, they want to interfere in family matter for some psychological crap?

  • How short-sighted these politicians are, or are they just plain ignorant? Perhaps both, or have they decided this is a good way to DEPOPULATE their own state. Actions have consequences, as do elections. Most of these mindless politicos will find themselves without a job, after their next re-election attempt. And if this bill passes, I fear the state will lose a lot of young, unhappy, misguided trans people to suicide, because the latter discovered, too late, that being trans was NOT fulfilling and NOT the way they really wanted to live.

    • The elections are for truthful people we need to just get rid of them the old fashioned way “THROW THEM ALL OUT IN THE STREET, NO PENSIONS OR WELFARE AND NO SECRET SERVICE CRAP” They have been stealing enough and living high on the hog at taxpayer expense. WAKE UP PEOPLE BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE.

  • GET YOUR GUNS OUT, PARENTS AND AMERICANS !!!

    TIME TO WATER THE TREE.

    Google “Laura Aboli youtube Transhumanism” to see what this is all about.

  • What is happening is we forgot the warning given by Thomas Jefferson in regard to the founding of our nation as a Republic and not a democracy. He considered a democracy to be akin to mob rule, rather than a country of legally enacted law.

  • This is just the beginning of what happens when the sheeple don’t stand up and keep voting for these Roaches. We need to exterminate and eliminate all the Roaches in our so called Government, it is becoming a dictatorship. Look out. WAKE UP PEOPLE

  • This move by the State of Maine is outrageous. Parents have the primary responsibility of raising and caring for their children – not the State. Sooner or later, someone is going to file a lawsuit, and that lawsuit will be appealed to the Supreme Court, which will strike down such Laws all over the country.

  • This is not communist china people we do not have to put up with these idiots at all. We have the second amendment, and this is why it was written.

  • Everybody send in your bills if they want to raise our kids they need to foot the bills then. lets all send in every receipt medical dental home, car, food , clothes and lets not forget repairs to keep everything going.. lets let them have it. F them

  • Isn’t “Transgenderism” another “woke” (new word speak) for “destruction of -The concept of SELF?” In other words, one cannot be an “individual” (either XX or XY) must be part of a “large community based upon equal results and same-mindedness??” Equal outcomes, with known results, make for “cookie-cutter same-mindedness COMMUNITIES!!!!” Constant ‘HEALTHCARE’ professionals are “ALWAYS AT THE READY” to aid and abet “the long road to cookie-cutter same mindedness NATIONS,” with Centralized Government national Health Plans. These “Big Pharma” multimillionaire National Leaders are “ever ready” to “help errant Life Forms,” displaying “concept of SELF, ” BE TREATED FOR THIS MALADY IN “ISOLATION WARDS.” See where this “transgenderism” hoo-haaah is going? Wake-up, America! EGO, SELF, INDIVIDUALISM is God’s Creation…Western (meritbased)Capitalism! Cookie-cutter same mindedness “Doesn’t Exist!” 1960’s Hippie Communes…Big Failures!! Amen. Read A Bible. KJV. Psalm 128. 10 Commandments everywhere. God Bless.
