Three of the nation's leading medical associations asked Biden to investigate and prosecute journalists and parents who threaten or target hospitals that provide transgender surgeries to minors
- The American Academy of Pediatrics, American Medical Association, and Children's Hospital Association sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland urging him to "take swift action to investigate" those who threaten and target hospitals and physicians who provide transgender surgery to minors.
The letter added that they stand with the physicians, nurses, mental health specialists, and other health care professionals providing evidence-based health care, including gender-affirming care, to children and adolescents.
- Although Dr. Morissa Ladinsky, a University of Alabama pediatrics professor, claims that pediatricians do not perform genital surgery on children, she admitted that mastectomies are included in the list of operations for transgender children. Other transgender health care given to children includes hormone therapy or puberty blockers.
