"The gender-related procedures at the center of this hearing are not health care and are not harmless." -- Senator Judy Ward bit.ly/44w6kXM

“The annual cost to taxpayers has sharply increased, rising from $58,919 in 2015 to $5,149,694 in 2023.” Taxpayer-funding for chemical and surgical mutilation of children in PA. senatorjudyward.com/2025/04/15/pro… Senator Judy Ward

The hearing highlighted the damaging practices that are being done to minors. I commend the testifiers for their courage to speak out in defense of our kids. What they shared serves as call for us to enact legislation like the Do No Harm Act, so that no more children are harmed.

Insurance data found 316 children received sex reassignment surgeries in Pennsylvania between 2019 and 2023, Dr. Kurt Miceli told a Senate hearing. He supports legislation to prohibit minors from receiving irreversible gender transitioning procedures. bit.ly/3YA30al

SB 9 passed the Senate by a bipartisan vote of 32-18 & now heads to the House. We cannot allow the opportunities that Title IX enshrined for women to be lost. With our passage of this bill today, we have shown that we will defend women & their right to safe & fair competition.

Today, I joined colleagues in the Senate, former Hempfield High track athlete, Lily Williams, Emily Kreps, of the PA Family Council, Sen. Phillips-Hill & fellow advocates to call on the House to protect women & girls across our Commonwealth & pass SB 9 to Save Women's Sports!

We’re committed to expanding education access and reforming outcomes in the state’s most challenged schools with the Pennsylvania Award for Student Success (PASS) scholarship program.

Men don't belong in women's sports. End of story. Thank you Senator Judy Ward and PA Senate Republicans for standing up for girls in Pennsylvania and passing the Save Women's Sports Act! @PAHouseDems should act immediately - or suffer the consequences for rejecting common sense.

I visited Bright Hope Pregnancy Support Centers in Allentown and saw their medical center, mobile ultrasound unit, resale shop, and housing for expecting moms. Grateful for the amazing work they do for mothers and babies! Senator Judy Ward Rep. Jeanne McNeill Rep. Jeanne McNeill #SaveTheStorks

Sending a high-five to my friend, Riley Gaines, for continuing to defend women in sports!
