Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton appeared on Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec, where they discussed the Senate candidate's recent settlement win against Texas Children's Hospital after the organization was caught performing illegal sex change interventions on minors.
When asked about the settlement, Paxton said that in addition to securing $10 million from Texas Children's Hospital, the hospital will be required to establish a detransition clinic where children and teens who regret transitioning may be able to get back to where they were.
"It's the first of its kind program in the United States," Paxton told Posobiec. "We're going to give some of these children an opportunity who couldn't afford it, who were in a bad spot because they were young and they didn't know, and their minds, their brains weren't fully developed, and they were potentially pushed into, or made poor decisions based on their age, can now come back and have an opportunity to potentially, at least partially, or maybe fully reverse what's happened to them."
Posobiec applauded the action from Paxton, saying, "This detransition clinic, funded by the hospital for five years, free of charge, for patients that are admitted. This is something that we would hope, as conservatives, that could be spread across the entire country."
"I just have to say, thank you for your work here and your efforts, because this is something that, look, you know, in conservative media, we've always got some outrage about what the radical transgender movement is doing, but this is a major, major victory, and hopefully, you mentioned the first of its kind, but hopefully it's not the last," Posobiec added.
Paxton spoke to how his office was able to bring the case against the hospital, and said that other GOP-led states should implement strategies they used, and added that the purpose of the clinic is to give kids who are detransitioning "to get as much of their life back as possible" as well as "provide hope to kids that have no hope."
