Detransitioner's Kaiser Lawsuit Fuels Push for Chloe Cole Act in Congress

Detransitioner's Kaiser Lawsuit Fuels Push for Chloe Cole Act in Congress
Status: MediumSeverity: 1 - Worth Knowing

A California Globe opinion piece profiles Chloe Cole of Manteca, California, who at 15 was placed on puberty blockers and by 16 underwent a double mastectomy at Kaiser Permanente. Now detransitioned, she is suing Kaiser in San Joaquin County Superior Court after the California Court of Appeal rejected Kaiser's bid to move the case to private arbitration; trial is set for April 2027. A second Northern California woman, Kayla Lovdahl, filed a similar suit after a mastectomy at age 13. The article ties these cases to H.R. 7651, the Chloe Cole Act of 2026, introduced by Rep. Bob Onder (R-Mo.), which defines sex as biological fact, bars minors' access to puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and 'sex-reassignment' surgeries, and creates a private right of action for affected families. The bill cleared the House Judiciary Committee July 20 and awaits a floor vote; Sen. Marsha Blackburn has introduced a Senate companion.

Why Bible-Believing Christians Should Care

Scripture affirms that God made humanity male and female as a fixed, good creation, not a self-determined identity to be surgically altered in childhood. These cases show what happens when institutions — medical, educational, and cultural — treat that created order as negotiable and push confused minors toward irreversible harm before they can legally drive or vote. Christians should care not only about the specific medical claims but about the underlying worldview: that a child's body is raw material for reshaping rather than a gift entrusted to parents to protect. Supporting accountability and biblical clarity on sex is part of defending the family as God designed it.

Male and female created he them." — Genesis 1:27

From the book

The attack runs on three fronts. It redefines structure, dismantling the normative standard of marriage. It redefines authority, transferring jurisdiction over children to the state through the expert. And it redefines identity, detaching gender and sexuality from biological reality.

— Chapter 18, “Why the Radical Must Dismantle the Family”
