The legislation adds abortion and transgender surgeries as \u201ccompelling reasons\u201d for licensed shelters and host homes not to notify parents if a runaway child is seeking such procedures. Instead, the shelters and facilities can inform the Department of Children, Youth, and Families.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this bill, Washington leads the way by taking a more compassionate, developmentally appropriate, and reasoned approach to support these youth as they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/unbelievable-ap-reports-trans-minors-protected-from-parents-under-washington-law\/\" title=\"AP reports that Washington law protects trans minors from their parents.\">access gender-affirming treatment<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/six-times-in-a-row-becerra-refuses-to-admit-partial-birth-abortion-is-illegal\/\" title=\"Six Times In A Row, Becerra Refuses To Admit Partial Birth Abortion Is Illegal\">reproductive health care services<\/a>,\u201d Inslee said when signing the bill.<\/p>\n<p>The bill was sponsored by state Sen. Marko Liias, a Democrat who represents an area just north of Seattle and is co-chair of the LGBTQ caucus. \u201cEvery child \u2013 including our trans youth \u2013 deserves to be safe at home. In a perfect world, that is the case, but unfortunately, that is not the reality,\u201d Liias said in a press release. \u201cThis legislation affirms our commitment to ensuring children have a safe and stable place to go when they are not welcome at home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The legislation easily made it through the Democrat-controlled legislature, passing the Senate 29-20 and the House 57-39. However, the measure was widely criticized by Republicans and other Washington residents who say it will deride parental rights. \u201cThe extremists have picked their position against WA families and parental rights. Now they can try to defend it. Spoiler: It\u2019s indefensible,\u201d said Republican Rep. Jim Walsh. Washington Senate Republicans said the bill would allow shelters to \u201chide\u201d children from their parents.<\/p>\n<p>The law represents the growing gap between red and blue states, as Republican-led states move to ban life-altering trans procedures on minors while Democrat-led states push to enshrine access to such procedures into law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington Democratic Governor Jay Inslee signed a bill into law on Tuesday that stipulates shelters are not required to contact parents if a runaway child is seeking an abortion or transgender procedures.\u00a0 The legislation adds abortion and transgender surgeries as \u201ccompelling reasons\u201d for licensed shelters and host homes not to notify parents if a runaway<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":200,"featured_media":1929546,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[541],"tags":[4310,4247,5007,11496,15684,6806,10600,8003,4019,4086],"class_list":["post-1929545","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-daily-wire","tag-abortion","tag-kids","tag-parents","tag-permits","tag-runaway","tag-seeking","tag-shelters","tag-surgery","tag-transgender","tag-washington"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1929545","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/200"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1929545"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1929545\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1929546"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1929545"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1929545"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1929545"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
