(LifeSiteNews) — Bishop Joseph Strickland of Texas blasted a Democrat representative’s argument that schools should provide menstrual products in boys’ bathrooms.
In a Twitter post this morning, the ordinary of the Diocese of Tyler responded to a widely circulating story of Rep. Sandra Feist advocating the inclusion of boys in a proposed bill to provide free menstrual products to students. Feist had argued that “not all students who menstruate are female.”
“This insanity needs to be clearly rejected and those who hold such unhinged opinions must be compassionately but vigorously corrected,” Strickland wrote. “This is basic biology. It is being twisted for an evil agenda. We cannot remain silent in the face of this evil.”

Feist’s comments come amid a debate over a proposed Minnesota bill which would require both charter schools and school districts to provide free menstrual products to pupils in grades 4-12. According to Fox News, Republican Rep. Dean Urdahl advocated for an amendment to clarify that these products were to be provided for female students in female-designated bathrooms, but his proposal was rejected.
READ: Public schools have been irretrievably colonized by the LGBT agenda
The radical LGBT agenda infiltrating the Catholic Church is persecuting another brave priest, who now desperately needs your help to speak on his behalf.
Fr. Joachim Wernersbach has been SUSPENDED by his abbot of the Benedictine Tholey Abbey for preaching against gender ideology and the heterodox Synodal Way — pushed by Pope Francis and the German Synod of Bishops.
Fr. Wernersbach is also suspended from performing pastoral activists in the surrounding parish, and is being subject to “an ecclesiastical investigation.”
We need everyone to speak up for suspended priest Fr. Wernersbach — the LGBT agenda cannot claim another brave and devout priest.
SIGN and SHARE now.
Pro-life and pro-family priests around the world are being silenced and cancelled, while pro-LGBT activists get hand-written letters from the Pope, like Fr. James Martin.
Fr. Wernersbach simply reiterated Catholic teaching in his Christmas homily: “You hear about gender and transgender, transhumanism and reproductive health, wokeness and LGBTQ, diversity and identity. Of multiple genders and gender reassignment, plus this devastating new understanding of revelation from the Synodal Way,” he said.
“My dear friends, even the terms are absolutely disturbing. They all have one thing in common: they lack beauty, they lack coherence, and they lack naturalness. They are not aligned, not in harmony with the inconceivably beautiful Divine Order.”
For this denunciation of anti-Catholic trends, Fr. Wernersbach has been suspended by his own abbot. The entire homily has also been removed from YouTube.
The systematic persecution of pro-life and pro-family priests must end now.
Demand that Fr. Wernersbach be restored to full priestly ministry and demand that his superiors STOP shilling for the LGBT agenda!
Good and faithful priests are being systematically cancelled — but you can raise your voice to stop the attacks.
SIGN NOW before it’s too late.
Fr. Wernersbach needs your voice!

Feist, who is sponsoring the bill, argued against the amendment, saying that “we need to make sure all students have access to these products. There are obviously less non-female menstruating students and therefore their usage will be much lower.”
She added that boys should have access to menstrual products because they “face a greater stigma and barrier to asking for these products.”
Strickland is not the only church leader taking a stand against the increasingly normalized lies of the “transgender” movement. The Diocese of Green Bay in Wisconsin instituted policies for diocesan schools in July 2022, prohibiting the students and staff from the use of pronouns, bathrooms, and uniforms which do not correspond with biological sex.
Earlier this week, a diocese in Iowa enacted a set of policies which defend the teaching of the Catholic Church that boys and girls cannot “transition” to the opposite sex. The guidelines ban the use of preferred pronouns and cross dressing at all diocesan ministries and events.
