Lauren Boebert says the Omnibus Bill will “sexualize” her sons
She is accusing her colleagues of "sexualizing" her sons because they're voting for an appropriations bill.
Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is opposed to the $1.7 trillion spending bill the House is expected to vote on later today, and she has some of the most bizarre reasons for opposing the bill, calling it “disgusting,” “un-American,” and “wrong.”
Instead of just attacking the bill’s military aid for Ukraine, election reforms, health care and child care funding, and funds for food assistance, Boebert is accusing the bill of “sexualizing” her four sons.
“Why do you want to sexualize our children?” she asks in a video posted to social media opposing the bill, addressing those voting for the bill. “I have four boys! And this law is targeting children of their ages all across America.”
She then explains that she is referring to some small grants for LGBTQ+ programs, including $1.2 million for LGBTQ+ students in San Diego and half a million for the Long Island Gay and Lesbian Youth Program. The programs she cites make up less than 0.00013% of the total bill’s funding.
“I’m working hard in D.C. to protect the freedoms of all Americans,” she says, even though she opposes all LGBTQ+ rights legislation, including the Equality Act, which would ban discrimination against LGBTQ+ people, and the Respect for Marriage Act, which protects some same-sex marriage rights if the Supreme Court overturns Obergefell v. Hodges.
“But this bill funds the sexualization of our children and that is disgusting, it’s un-American, and it’s wrong!”
