Michigan Democrats Try to Hide ‘Right’ to Genital Mutilation for Kids in Pro-Abortion Prop 3

Pretending that they want to safeguard abortion, Michigan Democrats also stuffed their pro-abortion Proposition 3 with dangerous pro-transgender measures, as well.

The measures would give left-wing, Munchausen by Proxy parents the “right” to mutilate their children in paean to transgenderism.

Prop 3 would give little children the “right” to demand dangerous, life destroying, puberty blockers, and other transgender procedures.

And per The Federalist, “Passage of Prop 3 will also give boys a constitutional right to be castrated and girls the right under Michigan’s constitution to be sterilized by way of a hysterectomy or the removal of their ovaries — all without their parents’ consent.”

Deceptive marketing by Planned Parenthood and far-left politicians, such as Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, hides this reality from Michigan voters, leading Prop 3 to be uniformly referred to as “the abortion amendment” even though the expansive language of the proposed constitutional amendment reaches far beyond abortion. And on abortion alone, notwithstanding proponents’ claims that “passing this amendment simply restores the same protections that Michiganders had for five decades under Roe v. Wade,” Prop 3 goes far beyond the controlling Roe-Casey precedent: If passed, the constitutional amendment would create an extreme regime in Michigan of abortion on demand, at any time, for any reason, without informed or parental consent, and paid for by taxpayers.

The expansive and legalistically worded language of Prop 3, crafted by Planned Parenthood and left-wing backers, however, extends beyond abortion to create a constitutional right to several aspects of what transgender activists call “gender-affirming care,” despite it being neither affirming nor caring. And Prop 3 extends that right to all individuals, including children.

This is not merely a political point, and it is not a worst-case-scenario argument based on how some liberal activist judge or justice might interpret Prop 3. This reality flows from the plain language of Prop 3 and rests on general legal principles of constitutional construction.

The Federalist points out that the dangerous language that will harm thousands of kids is right there in plain print.

The Prop states:

Every individual has a fundamental right to reproductive freedom, which entails the right to make and effectuate decisions about all matters relating to pregnancy, including but not limited to prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, contraception, sterilization, abortion care, miscarriage management, and infertility care. An individual’s right to reproductive freedom shall not be denied, burdened, nor infringed upon unless justified by a compelling state interest achieved by the least restrictive means.

Also, Prop 3 applies to ALL AGES, not just adults.

The Federalist has all the details, but this is an extremely dangerous law.

It must be defeated.
