Pelosi: Restricting DOD Funds From Being Used For Gender Transition Treatments Hurts National Security

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi slammed Republicans for trying to “rip away” health care for transgender service members.

In a statement Thursday, Pelosi said the “disgusting” attempt to restrict funds from being used to provide gender transition treatments is “unprecedented, unacceptable and undermines our national security.”

“Republicans should be ashamed: instead of protecting the men and women who risk their lives to defend our freedoms, they are fighting to rip away the health care of thousands of brave service members,” Pelosi said in a statement. “This cowardly Republican amendment targeting transgender men and women in uniform effectively bans these patriotic Americans from serving their country.”

Missouri GOP Rep. Vicky Hartzler filed an amendment to the House National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which successfully moved through the Rules Committee.

Not a necessity. Should not be approved. Period.

Nope. You signed up intact and should remain intact and ready for deployment at any given time as needed.

Want to play with your Pee Pee instead? Don't sign up here. That's not why we exist.

Is this the best Pelosi has to offer? Are these the issues on her front burner? Well, she is a California moon bat so I guess we should expect nothing more.

Gender transitioning is not the military's mission. Nor is it the mission of any branch of government.
