Maryland Governor Says He’d Support Teen Son’s Gender Transition Surgery

Maryland’s Democratic Governor Wes Moore has stated he would permit his teenage son to undergo gender transition surgery if the 14-year-old requested it. The governor, who political observers are eyeing as a possible contender for the 2028 presidential race, shared these views during a podcast appearance with host Patrick Bet-David.

Bet-David seemed surprised by Moore’s response during the interview. The governor’s position on transgender medical procedures for minors comes at a time when political experts believe the Democratic Party’s stance on transgender issues may have contributed to voter losses in the recent presidential election.
