This Politician Wants Taxpayer Money to Go to Sex-Change Operations

Pennsylvanians expect their tax dollars to support important things like schools, roads and agriculture. But gubernatorial candidate Tom Wolf thinks tax dollars also should pay for sex-change operations for state employees.

ACTION of PA (Americans for Christian Traditions In Our Nation) says voters need to know about Tom Wolf’s egregious plans to misuse taxpayer dollars and vote for Governor Tom Corbett today, November 4, to ensure taxpayer funds support true state needs rather than gender experimentation—or gender reassignment surgery as Wolf states. According to a statement by Wolf himself, captured on video and viewable at www.actionofpa.org, Wolf believes gender reassignment surgery should be covered by insurance provided to state employees.  

“The fact that Tom Wolf endorses taxpayer funding for gender reassignment surgery (and let’s just say it in plain English—Wolf is talking about sex-change operations) demonstrates how disconnected he is from Pennsylvania voters and from Pennsylvania’s needs,” said ACTION of PA Executive Director Gwenne Alexander. “Couple this with the fact that Tom Wolf wants to raise taxes on hardworking Pennsylvanians, and this begs the questions, ‘Is Tom Wolf actually asking citizens to pay more to the government so the government can then pay for sex-change operations? Is this Wolf’s idea of priorities for Pennsylvania?'”

Additionally, as the Republican Party of Pennsylvania notes at TomWolfFacts.com, Wolf’s education plan would actually raise state income taxes by a potential 121%, according to an analysis by the Commonwealth Foundation.

“Tom Wolf’s plans are wrong for hardworking Pennsylvanians and wrong for the future of our state,” Alexander continued. “We urge Republicans to halt Wolf’s reckless spending plans in their tracks by voting for Governor Tom Corbett on November 4.”
