Fox News reported that the Assistant Secretary for Health at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, “Rachel” Levine, pledged sex-change treatments and surgeries for kids will grow more normal in the near future.
Levine spoke about sex-change treatments and surgeries at the Pediatric Grand Rounds session at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center in Hartford.
Levine said sex-change treatments and surgeries for kids has the “highest support” of the current administration.
“But I’m a positive and optimistic person, and I choose to be positive, optimistic. And I think that the wheels will turn on this,” Levine said. “I think that it’s not going to be politically advantageous. It wasn’t particularly in 2022. And so I think that as we look to all the different elections in 2024, I think the next two years are going to be challenging. But I am positive and optimistic and hopeful that the wheel will turn after that and that this issue won’t be as politically and socially such a minefield.”
