"Gov Gavin Newsom over the weekend vetoed legislation aimed at protecting providers of gender-affirming care from being extradited to face charges for doing so by another state." He was "worried about constraints on the governor's power to approve extraditions". www.ebar.com/story/170505...

The lawyer representing the parents, Vernadette Broyles, also represented Jaime Reed, the so-called whistleblower from a Missouri gender clinic whose accounts were contradicted by patients and parents. Broyles works closely with the Alliance Defending Freedom.
A couple went on a Fox News podcast and claimed the state of #Massachusetts took away their teen because they won't help the teen transition. But it's actually because the father was charged with beating and threatening to kill the teen and the mother was charged with witness intimidation.

Grace of My Heart Portrays the Thrill of the ’60s Music Scene Better Than Any Biopic — Crooked Marquee
