Liberal lawmakers buck party on transgender surgeries

Twelve New Hampshire state House Democrats voted with Republicans to pass a bill banning sex change surgeries for children.

New Hampshire Democrat Rep. Jonah Wheeler was one of the 12 members of his party to vote for the bill, giving a floor speech on Thursday, citing the “irreversible surgeries” at the heart of the issue.

“These are irreversible surgeries,” Wheeler said. “But when we’re talking about whether or not kids should get these surgeries, I think that goes a bridge too far.”

The bill, HB 619, was originally designed to ban all transgender medical procedures on minors but was amended to only focus on barring sex change surgeries for kids.
