Joe Biden criticizes Florida’s restrictive policy on trans minors
The state, ruled by ultraconservative Ron DeSantis, who is emerging as a potential Republican presidential candidate, restricts hormone and gender-based therapies to the public.
The president of United States, Joe Biden80, called this Monday, 13, “disgraceful” and “cruel” the policy of restrictions on trans minors that prevails in Floridarepublican-governed state Ron DeSantis. “My mother would say that what is happening in Florida is, to say the least, shameful. What they’re doing is just horrible,” Biden said, according to an excerpt from an interview with “The Daily Show.” “It’s not like a kid wakes up one day and says, ‘You know what? I decided to be a man or a woman. ‘. They are human beings. They have feelings, emotions, it seems cruel to me,” the Democrat criticized. DeSantis, who is emerging as a possible Republican presidential candidate, advocates an ultraconservative moral agenda. The governor was the promoter of a law strongly criticized in named place “Don’t say gay”, which strongly limits subjects related to sexual education in schools, so that there is no educational approach to sexual orientation and gender identity. The idea of the law is to stop talking about these topics in these spaces. Additionally, the state medical authority has banned hormone therapy for trans minors and other gender-affirming treatments for the same audience.
