The hospital has been inundated with harassing calls, emails, and death threats after several conservative social media accounts shared videos about the gender-affirming care the program provides.
the trans health program offers such procedures to “young girls,” when patients must be 18 or older.
Rollins called the reports about the harassment campaign “disturbing to say the least,” adding, “Children deserve an opportunity to thrive and grow as their own authentic selves. Parents/guardians and health care providers who support them in that journey should be allowed to do so free of threats and harassment. I want to make it clear that the Department of Justice will ensure equal protection of transgender people under the law.
New statement from the Department of Justice about the threats directed at Boston Children’s Hospital from far-right activists.
