Washington introduces itself as a "sanctuary state" for minors and transgenders seeking gender-affirming procedures and reproductive health services such as abortion. Parent consent will have zero weight in the process.
In the dark of night on the last day of the legislative session in Washington state, Senate Democrats passed Senate Bill 5599, a breathtaking evisceration of parental rights. The bill would allow the state to legally hide runaway children from their parents if the parents don’t consent to their child’s “gender transition” or abortion. No allegation of abuse in the household is required.
