RICHMOND, VA; March 12, 2025 – Today, Do No Harm announced support for the Children’s Hospital GME Support Reauthorization Act that Representative Dan Crenshaw will introduce in Congress. This act will block funding for graduate medical education programs at children’s hospitals if the hospital provides sex change procedures for minors.
Since 1999, the Children’s Hospital Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) program has funded graduate medical education programs to train resident physicians and dentists. The Children’s Hospital GME Support Reauthorization Act of 2025 extends the CHGME program through 2030. The legislation prevents CHGME funding from going to hospitals that administer child sex change interventions such as cross-sex hormones, puberty blockers, and surgeries.
“The American taxpayer should not fund hospitals that perform unscientific sex-change procedures on minors,” said Dr. Kurt Miceli, Medical Director at Do No Harm. “Representative Crenshaw’s bill is important to help protect our children by ensuring federally-funded graduate medical education programs do not engage in these harmful practices. Do No Harm supports this bill to help restore true quality of care, faith and trust in our profession. We thank Representative Crenshaw for introducing it.”
“We’re standing for basic medical ethics and recognizing those who have been silenced and betrayed by a system that put ideology ahead of genuine care,” said Representative Dan Crenshaw. “Medicine should be grounded in truth and healing—not in false promises that cause lasting harm. I will always fight for detransitioners and push for real safeguards to ensure no one is harmed by dangerous gender transition procedures in the future.”
Do No Harm, established in April 2022, has rapidly gained recognition and made significant strides in its mission to safeguard healthcare from ideological threats. With 16,000 members, including doctors, nurses, physicians, and concerned citizens across all 50 states and 14 countries, DNH has achieved over 10,000 media hits in top-tier publications and garnered widespread attention through numerous broadcast news appearances.
