House Democrats Pass Bill to Grill School Children about Sexual Preference

At the House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee hearing last Thursday, Democrats passed a bill to require federal health officials to question anyone seeking services from Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) community health centers or other programs about their sexual orientation and “gender identity.”

Introduced by Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.), H.R. 6109 requires HHS to obtain, retain and analyze sexual identity information from patients who seek healthcare, including children.

“This bill is about collecting data, no more, no less,” Baldwin said.​

According to Baldwin, the current “lack of cultural competency” among federal officials means that “we are left with gaping holes in our knowledge on LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered) policy” resulting in “significant health disparities.”​

I was thinking along those lines as well. Some sort of unfulfilled sexual fantasy for Obama's perverts. Just when you think they can't sink any lower, they surprise the shit out of you. Just more names on teh list of who to defeat in this and subsequent elections.

For the life of me, I can't figure out how this would help the government at all. Just another case of nannyism.

Here is the bill hardly something I would call grilling, but I guess you guys think it is if one asks. http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.+6109:

Oh and by the way this H.R. 6109 is using the number of as one for home land security that died on the vine pretty much like this one will.

Maybe mak2 can tell us how this will make any difference. He's in the health care industry and usually has some insight that we can't see. I just think they're nosy pervs.

Hmmm... the U.S. Military still has 'don't ask; don't tell'.
How can they justify asking children who don't even know yet ?

If someone asked me questions like that to get healthcare they would need it worse than me. If they asked my grand kids they would need facial reconstruction.

It was voted out of committee, but I'd bet some serious cash that it will die on the House floor. By the by, Rep Baldwin is the first openly declared lesbian in the House - you can make whatever you want out of that.
