Biden’s Deputies Demand State Welfare Agencies ‘Affirm LGBT Children’
KATHERINE HAMILTON2 Apr 202267
President Joe Biden’s deputies are pressuring the 50 states’ child welfare agencies to ensure that abandoned or homeless kids who declare an “LGBT” identity must be placed with foster homes and organizations that “affirm” their claimed sexual status.
“Each title IV-E agency should be particularly vigilant about placing LGBTQI+ children and youth in homes and child-care institutions where they are supported, safe, and can develop as a whole person,” said a federal document, exclusively reported here by Breitbart News.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) sent a memorandum to state child welfare agencies across the United States on March 2, 2022, issuing guidance on how to “best serve lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, and intersex (LGBTQI+1 ) children and youth” in the child welfare system.
The White House on Thursday touted HHS’s recently released guidance, nodding to it in a proclamation for “National Child Abuse Prevention Month.” President Joe Biden appeared to use the proclamation to slam Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R), without naming him, claiming the United States is witnessing a “dangerous campaign” from elected officials to “weaponize the child welfare system against families just because they love and affirm their transgender children.”
Abbott notably issued a policy in March ordering Texas’ Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) to investigate parents of children who receive hormone therapy and gender-transforming procedures, along with any medical professional who provides such health care, and called such actions “child abuse.” However, a Texas judge issued a temporary restraining order against the directive. Biden in his proclamation seemed to claim that not giving children “gender affirming care” is what actually constitutes child abuse, but he did not mention the disastrous and sometimes irreversible consequences of those treatments on minors.
