NY Times ^ | May 24, 2019 | Erica L. Green and Abby Goodnough

The Trump administration has formally proposed to revise Obama-era civil rights for transgender people in the nation’s health care system, eliminating “gender identity” as a factor in health care and leaning government policy toward recognizing only characteristics of sex at birth.

The Department of Health and Human Services published its proposed regulation Friday, which eliminates a 2016 regulation inserted by the Obama administration that redefined discrimination “on the basis of sex” to include gender identity.

Good. There shouldn't be all these "special" rights based on various factors.

IOW, you could be railroaded into a hate crime charge if you used the wrong pronoun for one of these sick, twisted exhibitionists.

It’s amazing how a group that is less than one percent of the population can cause such changes to society as a whole.

“Rollback of Transgender Protections.”

If nothing else, you have to acknowledge that the leftist know how to control the language of the discussion. They take care to use words loaded with meaning when they want to use them for a purpose. On the other hand, the words they use to describe murdering babies are vague and mundane.

Great news, good start but conservatives are going to have to keep the fight up because these mental nut cases will never give up.

It's because they're being used as pawns in a political game.

Veterans, military, police, business owners, all hated by the liberals. But if you want to be a perv, or cut off the weenie, or some such you will be celebrated as “special” by the left.

“...the new policy on military lethality, which will begin separation procedures for service members who have been non-deployable for the last 12 months or more. This new policy is a 12-month deploy or be removed policy.”

What good is having someone in the military that is non-deployable, which is 99.9% of any transwhatevers….

On to getting rid of the next stupid obama policy — Thank you President Trump for making the military great again!!!

"How about No “immigrant” gets “special rights” either...have to be CITIZEN"

---------------------

Ben Carson has been stepping out front on that with HUD and he's been doing a fine job, but it is a real sh#t fight with the libtards.

Happy to see our President taking the lead on dialing back the "special status" of these deviants who think self-proclaimed orientation is the same thing as their sex at birth. Of course it isn't and it will be a brick throwing street fight to take back the "rights" they think they have earned.

No dude in a dress should be competing in sports against girls who were born female. Form up in the other line with males fella.

Have to give the NYT credit this time for getting the story mostly right. Usually they try to hide the fact that Trump is simply undoing something that Obama put in place a few years prior and instead make it seem like he’s doing something evil that’s never been done before in the history of the country.

Yes. Diagnoses, treatments, and dosages are different for men and women. The doctor is NOT responsible for bad outcomes when the doctor is lied to.

The mentally ill do not need enablement they need treatment even institutionalization when they become a danger to themselves and others.

The ONLY meaningful criteria to judge gender by is BIOLOGICAL!

Any other is meaningless, and should NOT be protected by law!

A person’s “gender identity” is the one they are born with!

PS NO amount of surgery or hormone manipulation can change a person’s gender!
