(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) A new report from the Pennsylvania Family Council stated that Pennsylvania has spent $16.7 million in taxpayer money on the mutilation of children like “sex-change surgeries” and other “gender transition services” since 2015.
“A Right-To-Know request submitted by the PFI uncovered that the state’s Department of Human Services has spent millions ‘on sex reassignment and transition-related services and drugs for service,’” the Daily Caller reported.
“The totals include expenditures from the Children’s Health Insurance Program [CHIP], Fee-For-Service [FFS] paid claims and payments through HealthChoices.”
“The amount spent on sex-change services has risen rapidly since 2015. That year, public health authorities spent just $78,073.38. In 2017, spending on gender transitions for children topped $1 million and rose to $3,928,854.71 in 2021,” the news site continued.
According to Dan Bartkowiak, director of communications at the Pennsylvania Family Institute, Americans need to continue following the money.
“We need to find out more from the state on where these millions in funding [are] going,” he told the Caller.
PFI’s original report said that “[questions] remain as to who are the major recipients of all this taxpayer funding.”
Bartkowiak said that he and his organization will continue their work by exposing the advocates of children’s mutilation.
“Pennsylvania Family Institute intends to submit additional requests to help obtain this needed information,” Bartkowiak said.
“It would have to be a medical provider that accepts Medical Assistance or CHIP. Many private providers do not accept that type of funding.”
“The major medical providers in Pennsylvania do accept it: [Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia], Penn State Health, Penn Medicine, and UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh,” he added.
He also said that politicians should pass legislation that would oppose this horrific procedure on kids that, in a truly Orwellian fashion, “transgender” advocates call “sex-change services.”
“If we prioritize the health and safety of children, the people of Pennsylvania should be vocal in their concerns to their state and Congressional offices and make this a top priority for any elected official involved — both at the state and federal level,” he said.
