Your child is born! One of the most amazing moments in your life. And then a nurse (or hospital administrative agent) hands you a form asking you if your one-day old child is… bisexual?
That’s what’s apparently happening as you read this article at hospitals across New Jersey, Save Jerseyans.
A sample of these forms (a sample from South Jersey’s Inspira hospital system is posted below – I’m told by a reliable source that this particular system ceased using this particular form after obtaining a waiver late last year) are in use throughout the state, and I’m told it’s as a direct result of A-4385, legislation signed into law by Governor Phil Murphy in June 2022 after a mostly party-line vote. The relatively new law provides, in part:
“Each general acute care hospital that collects data concerning patient race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or gender identity for any reason shall implement an evidence-based cultural competency training program for all staff members employed by or working under the supervision of the general acute hospital who have direct contact with patients and are responsible for collecting race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity information from patients.”
Labs and other medical institutions are also covered by the law.
“On May 18, we implemented a new intake survey that gathers sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) data from patients,” the CEO of Inspira explained in a public letter back in spring 2023. “We are required to report this data to the New Jersey Department of Health, which shares it with the federal government. The goal is to carefully review how health care is delivered and to identify disparities and unconscious biases. So far, this survey has been very well received by patients, who have expressed gratitude and appreciation. Stay tuned for more information about how the survey information will be shared with clinical teams.”
On Wednesday, I spoke with our friend state Senator Holly Schepisi (R-39), the legislator who first blew the whistle on New Jersey’s highly-sexualized curriculum standards, who only recently found out about the practice and needless to say was less than happy.
“Yesterday it came to my attention that medical providers, laboratories and hospitals are being forced to provide the questionnaire below to NEWBORN patients,” Schepisi explained on her Facebook page. “While completely and utterly insane, these facilities are doing so to comply with another nonsensical law A-4385 passed by the democratically controlled legislature in 2022. This law mandates collection of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender identity data with no age threshold – hence newborn babies receiving the survey. I will be sponsoring legislation immediately to rescind this absurd requirement which is a waste of medical professional’s time and resources.”
The Murphy Administration has consistently prioritized shoving radical gender science down the throats of taxpayers, parents, and students over the course of the past seven years. Meanwhile, the Trump Administration recently issued an executive order striking out against funding for institutions providing “genderal affirming care” but the directive remains tied up in the courts.
During his Tuesday night address to a joint session of Congress, President Trump implored the legislative branch “to pass a bill permanently banning and criminalizing sex changes on children and forever ending the lie that any child is trapped in the wrong body.”
“This is a big lie,” Trump said. “And our message to every child in America is that you are perfect, exactly the way God made you.”
