This is the pure stuff, an undiluted dose of raw California. A “request for information” (RFI) from the California Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAI) invites private organizations to apply for a role administering the state’s transgender equity programs. The winning bidder will distribute funds from three separate pools of money:
The section of the RFI describing the background of these grant programs explains that federal policy has caused a crisis in “access to gender affirming care, in particular for children and youth.” Children can’t get their genitals mutilated, so the state must act.
Respondents are required to have administrative experience in the field of youth genital mutilation, being required to submit an application that describes “your organization’s experience providing culturally competent services to transgender, gender-diverse, and intersex (TGI) communities, including gender affirming care,” which has to include particular experience with “communities of color” and people who speak limited English.
Every theme comes together: government spending outsourced to non-profit corporations, transgender kids, taxpayer-funded abortions for the gender diverse, public services for people who just showed up and need a translator to get their free government money. If you’re wondering how California is governed, it’s governed like this.
Note especially Section E of the RFI, which makes all applications exempt from disclosure under the state’s public records law. The private corporation giving away taxpayer funds to pay for transgender non-English-speaking abortions will do it in secret.
The whole country can have this kind of government by choosing California’s governor as its president in 2028.
