On March 24, 2025, Connecticut’s legislative scene felt like a three-ring circus straight out of P.T. Barnum’s playbook — fitting, since the Bethel-born showman brought spectacle to the state before his circus merged with the Ringling brothers’ operation in 1919. Unlike Barnum’s dazzling tents, though, these three "rings" were hearing rooms tackling bills on gender-affirming care: HB 7135 in the Judiciary Committee, SB 1530 in the Government Administration and Elections (GAE) Committee, and SB 7 in the Public Health Committee. Each of the simultaneous performances showcased the state's chaotic push to entrench irreversible gender procedures on children, violating Connecticut’s duty to protect its youth under current state laws. 

Here’s a spotlight review revealing each committee’s troubling agenda.

Judiciary Committee: HB 7135 - Bureaucratic Blindness

In the Judiciary Committee, HB 7135 was one of three bills. Both SB 1438 and HB 7236 are bills that protect children while HB 7135 is the opposite, extending a shield law that protects providers of gender-affirming care from out-of-state lawsuits. Section 1 of HB 7135 allows these individuals to recover damages from anyone—parents or advocates—who dares challenge them elsewhere, effectively silencing those seeking justice for harmed children. Sections 3 through 6 further insulate providers, institutions, and insurers from discipline, even if their actions flout ethical standards outside Connecticut. This hearing’s center stage performance is the direct comparison of one bill criminalizing female gender mutilation as a Class D Felony (SB 1438) while the other (HB 7135) would allow doctors to continue with the removal of sexual organs and breasts on children with no punishable legal recourse. 

Government Administration and Elections Committee: SB 1530 - Shielding Harm from Accountability

Over in the GAE Committee, SB 1530 juggled government oversight with the same troubling protections. In this bill, section 2 defines gender-affirming care broadly and lets providers sue challengers from restrictive states, clashing with existing Connecticut laws that stand against cruelty toward children. Sections 4-7 shield providers from discipline across state lines, while Section 10 bars public agencies from aiding interstate probes unless court-ordered—thwarting accountability for acts that could impair minors’ health which is currently protected under Connecticut law. Section 1’s reporting requirements sound administrative, but they burden taxpayers to pay for procedures that are harmful, not protective, and ignore statistical evidence that 60-90% of pre-pubertal kids desist without intervention. Section 2’s secrecy on medical records only deepens the cover-up, hiding potential malpractice from scrutiny. This hearing featured a jaw-dropping 15 bills and gave those who came to see lower energy costs and fairer elections the opportunity to witness the main show of hypocrisy about using Connecticut tax dollars to sterilize children in the name of “reproductive health care.”

Public Health Committee: SB 7 - Health Care or Harm Care?

The Public Health Committee featured SB 7, the sprawling third act of the show which also dressed up child mutilation procedures and sterilization protocols as health care. Section 4(b) forbids limiting providers’ ability to offer gender-affirming services, shielding acts that current Connecticut law deems felonious cruelty when they irreversibly alter a child’s body. Section 19’s "safe harbor account" funds these procedures, drawing out-of-state minors to Connecticut. This public health policy, drawing people to the state for potentially permanent gender harm, is at odds with the American College of Pediatricians’ 2021 review showing psychotherapy often resolves dysphoria without scalpels. The bill continues on with sections 6-12 on emergency services that could stretch to normalize this child disfigurement, defying Connecticut’s legal duty to protect kids from permanent body mutilation. The audience was marveled by the reports of magicians creating money and clowns insisting that taxpayers are not funding the gender dysphoria protocols in our state. 

Burning Down the Big Top

The legislative circus, three simultaneous hearings all with similar bills trying to shield doctors from being accountable in transing children, made it as tough as walking a tightrope for speakers to testify at all three events. This is not just about a performance, though. These policies significantly impact children and those willing to travel far distances to spend all day waiting to speak are on a serious mission to stop the harm. It is not for the faint of heart to speak before the legislators and push back against an evil agenda. The testimonies are raw and true; real life stories from victims who have been caught up in the churning money machine of gender-affirmation. For a glimpse at the ring leaders who are the truth-tellers, the real success of the event, check out their testimonies:

Also in the ring with the stars are the doctors and professionals who are sharing their testimonies, Dr. Steve Ward, Dr. Jared Ross, Leta Boylan and Jamie Reed:

The show even had great Channel 8 News Coverage:

These brave souls demolished the false narrative that children will commit suicide if they are not allowed take sterilizers or to chop off parts of their bodies in order to feel something other than their born gender.

After their testimonies exposed the real-life dangers of the transing social contagion, it is clear that children are the ultimate victims of the money push that is influencing and driving decision makers in Hartford to create some really bad bills. This push for gender-affirming care on minors is a flammable tent propped up by HB 7135, SB 1530, and SB 7, and it is time for the Legislators in Hartford to take the right steps to prevent an inevitable fire. Let’s not be a state risking irreversible harm to our youth. It’s time to stop this three-ring fiasco from burning down Hartford and let the evidence—real life testimony and decades of desistance data—torch the whole misguided agenda instead. Our kids deserve protection, not a circus of regret.

Harm is real; it is happening and we are paying for it. Anyone who is still denying that these child mutilations are happening in Connecticut, here’s a report just published:
