On a party-line vote, an amendment to the state operating budget passed that house that prevents state money from being expended for “gender dysphoria” services that are not mandated to be covered by state law or a binding order of the court.
The amendment was made by Rep. Sarah Vance, and agreed to by a vote of 21 to 19.
“The money appropriated for the Department of Health may be expended only for mandatory services required under Title XIX of the Social Security Act, unless a U.S. Supreme Court decision provides new precedent, and for optional services offered by the state under the state plan for medical assistance that has been approved by the United States Department of Health and Human Services,” the amendment says.
All Democrats and undeclared Democrats like Rep. Alyse Galvin voted against the amendment, which must still pass the Senate and may still be killed there, as the Senate is increasingly hardline progressive dominated.
Thank you Rep.Vance. As you are the current target of the progressive (far left) 907 Initiative “non-profit” group out of Anchorage we hope you will continue to stand strong for conservative values. The 907 Initiative is known for their “Dear Neighbor” letters that make it look like a group of people from your community are behind the letter. That is until you see the small print and pre-paid postage envelope.
Good job Sarah!
Thank Sarah Vance for your wonderful work..Also thanks to the others that stood WITH her..
Good work Rep. Vance.
I find it humorous how the modern feminists have twisted their minds into pretzels. They have fought for womens rights so hard that they allow mentally deranged men to subvert all that progress. A mentally deranged man can claim to identify as a women and the modern feminist will say “yas queen” and let these men right into their female spaces. How can they claim to stand for womens rights when a man can so easily claim to be a woman and get right past the gates of womanhood?
The modern feminist is either a silly joke, or the modern feminists are actually wolf in sheeps clothing and are actually a danger to the female energy. Either way, stay away from the modern feminist. They are sick and will make anyone around them sicks and will certainly try to turn your children into something they are not. Destroy evil, do not become friends with it.
Frankly the activist feminists have not changed, just the topic they hyperventilate about. Even back in the ’80s and 90’s all their highfalutin talk about “a woman having a choice” and “you can have it all” became tyrannical the minute some woman CHOSE to stay home with the kids and a make a home for her family. Instead of celebrating that choice, there were calls of “traitor to the cause” and “being blinded by masculinity”. Feminists, like climate activists and socialists, see everything through their very narrow prism of “my way or else”, so celebrating even fake femininity is perfectly acceptable as it (while clearly grotesquely) highlights anything female. They are blind to the mockery it makes of real women.
