Sen. J.D. Vance Introducing ‘Protect Children’s Innocence Act’ to Ban Sex Changes for Minors
Senator J.D. Vance has introduced the “Protect Children’s Innocence Act” in the Senate to ban sex changes for minors.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene originally introduced the bill in the House of Representatives.
The legislation aims to criminalize genital mutilation and chemical castration of minor children, by making it a Class C Felony to provide puberty blockers, hormones, or surgical sex change operations for minors. Those who violate the law could be subject to a prison sentence of 10 to 25 years or a maximum fine of $250,000.
Additionally, the bill would prohibit institutions of higher education from providing instruction on so-called “gender-affirming care” and deem foreign citizens who have performed transgender treatments on a minor as ineligible to receive visas or be admitted to the United States.
