The vote "marks a precedent-setting victory over the predatory transgender industry. For too long, American tax dollars have been subsidizing the horrific medical malpractice of 'transitioning' children to live as the opposite sex, despite the sterilization and mutilation that these practices often entail." -Terry Schilling, president of American Principles Project

The 1,800+ page National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed the US House of Representatives on Wednesday afternoon by a vote of 281 to 140. It must pass by the end of the year.

The American Principles Project praised the bill for defunding "sterilizing sex-change procedures for minors" in a statement sent to LifeSiteNews.

The vote "marks a precedent-setting victory over the predatory transgender industry," President Terry Schilling stated.

"For too long, American tax dollars have been subsidizing the horrific medical malpractice of 'transitioning' children to live as the opposite sex, despite the sterilization and mutilation that these practices often entail," Schilling stated.

"Even as England today banned the use of 'puberty blockers' on kids, our country's corrupted healthcare establishment continues to push this discredited and damaging treatment, for both ideological and financial reasons," he stated. "Enough is enough."

The group is "grateful" for Speaker Mike Johnson's work on including this provision.

"And we urge Republican leaders in both chambers to continue to prioritize this issue, both for the remainder of this Congress and especially in the next one," he stated. "Voters this November gave the GOP a mandate to act—now they must follow through."... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
