From the article Admin. linked:
t’s easy to be confused by the official-sounding name. “American College of Pediatricians” does indeed sound legit. But these are not the 67,000-strong doctors that make up the American Academy of Pediatrics, a reputable group that advocates for keeping children alive and healthy with vaccines, masks in schools during pandemics, that sort of thing.
The American College of Pediatricians is a far punier group, suspected to be only a few hundred strong, although they don’t share membership numbers publicly.
Apostates of the American Academy of Pediatrics, the knock-off group came to Arkansas to help lobby for some of the worst, most hateful and harmful legislation passed in recent memory. They’re proponents of conversion therapy, and their advocacy for the SAFE Act, which not only bans medical gender-affirming care for transgender youth but also makes it illegal for doctors to refer these patients elsewhere for such care, makes Arkansas a shittier place to live by half. Luckily
as a federal judge mulls a legal challenge.
