**Insanity in Healthcare: New Jersey Mandates Gender Identity Forms for Newborns**
In a bewildering turn of events, New Jersey has introduced a law requiring hospitals to collect detailed information on the gender identity and sexual orientation of newborns.
This absurdity came to light when Inspira Health, a New Jersey hospital, distributed a “Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Questionnaire” aimed at parents of newborns.
Parents are asked to indicate whether their baby identifies as male, female, transgender, or any other gender identity, and are further queried about the newborn's sexual orientation.
Republican Assemblywoman Holly Schepisi has voiced her outrage, labeling the requirement “utterly insane."
She highlighted the ludicrous scenario of asking parents of newborns—who are entirely too young to express such identities—to respond to questions typically reserved for adults.
The legislation, passed in 2022, was designed to collect data deemed necessary for hospitals to operate in a “culturally competent” manner.
However, in practice, it has pushed New Jersey into a realm of bizarre bureaucracy, leaving many questioning the rationale behind such intrusive measures.
Inspira Health insists that compliance with state law necessitates adherence to this controversial mandate.
Though proponents of the law may argue for the collection of health data, the broader implications of using newborns as data points in a politically charged agenda are troubling.
In response to the outcry, Schepisi declared her intention to introduce legislation to repeal this requirement, a move that resonates with many parents and advocates who are concerned about preserving parental rights and protecting children from unnecessary political agendas.
As society grapples with the implications of identity politics, particularly regarding children, it's clear that this latest development in New Jersey exemplifies the overreach of progressive policies into personal and familial realms.
The focus on a child’s gender identity forces parents into uncomfortable territory at a time when they should be enjoying the joys of welcoming a new life.
With public figures like Schepisi leading the charge against such extreme measures, there is hope for a return to common sense in legislation.
As debates continue, one thing remains certain: the core of this issue revolves around parental rights and the appropriate treatment of families in the healthcare system.
