The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Matt Sharp, director of the ADF Center for Legislative Advocacy, regarding Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb’s signing Wednesday of SB 480, a bill that protects children from dangerous, life-altering medical procedures: “Denying the truth that we are either male or female hurts people, especially vulnerable children.
