Daily Wire host Matt Walsh testified before a Tennessee House committee and sparred with Democrat lawmakers Wednesday as a bill that would ban sex-change treatments on minors makes its way through the legislature.
Walsh spoke in front of the House Health Committee at the Cordell Hull Building on House Bill 1, a bill introduced by Republican House Majority Leader William Lamberth that would prohibit so-called gender transition medications and surgeries on minors.
“We should be able to agree that it is never OK to chemically castrate, sterilize, butcher, or mutilate a child. And in fact, all decent people do agree on this point,” Walsh said during his testimony. “But many of the people who hold power in this country and who run our institutions — including our medical institutions — do not pass this basic test of decency.”
