Trump administration warns hospitals flouting child sex-change ban

President Donald Trump is reportedly weighing federal funding cuts to hospitals that provide sex change treatments to minors in spite of the administration’s orders.

Mehmet Oz, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) administrator, gave nine children’s hospitals a 30-day deadline beginning May 28 to confirm they are not providing sex changes to children. With several hospitals now failing to provide data in response, CMS is considering revoking federal funding for noncompliance, the Wall Street Journal reported.
