Democrat Senator Bob Casey celebrates in taxpayer dollars going to LGBT center that provides children sex-change services and has hosted events on 'bigger d*** energy'

The Mazzoni Center in Philadelphia provides gender reassignment treatment to minors and has sponsored multiple events for transgender youth - and Democrat Senator Bob Casey just secured them a massive allotment of cash. 

The senior senator from Pennsylvania secured $400,000 in taxpayer funds for the Mazzoni center in the fiscal year 2024 spending package. 

The nonprofit also hosts the annual Philadelphia Trans Wellness Conference, which has hosted panels on 'Bigger D*** Energy: Life After Masculinizing,' 'The Ins and Outs of Masturbation Sleeves,' and 'The Adolescent Pathway: Preparing Young People for Gender-Affirming Care.'

'Today, Senator Bob Casey announced with Mazzoni Center leadership a $400K congressional appropriation for building upgrades, including a building generator to protect refrigerated pharmaceuticals and vaccines,' the group posted on social media Thursday.

On Thursday, Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., visited the Mazzoni Center to celebrate his securing of $400,000 for the nonprofit

'We thank the Senator for supporting LGBTQ+ health and wellness,' the post continued.  

The center is known to provide puberty blockers and hormone therapy for patients, including kids. 

It also provides testing for HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STI's), counseling and health education.

In addition to providing treatment at the center, the group also connects patients to surgeons who can perform sex-change procedures. In Pennsylvania, these surgeries on minors are legal. 

The annual Philadelphia Trans Wellness Conference hosted by the group has sparked controversy in the past and in 2017 canceled an events on de-transitioning.

The 'Alternate ways of working with gender dysphoria' and 'Detransition: A panel discussion' were both canceled because, the group wrote at the time, 'when a topic becomes controversial, such as this one has turned on social media, there is a duty to make sure that the debate does not get out of control at the conference itself.'

'This was detracting from our overall mission of the conference, to provide an accessible and respectful environment that centers the experiences of the transgender and gender non-conforming/non-binary (GNC/NB) community,' the post continued. 

The center held a fundraising event titled 'Kinky Cupcakes' 

It has also sponsored transgender youth events with minors 

The Mazzoni Center also hosts 'Femme University,' a meeting to teach the 'younger generation' of transgender people how to express and explore their feminine side.

The Mazzoni Center also supports a 'Pride Prom' for LGBT youth aged 14-18

In March, Casey withdrew his request for a $1 million allocation for another Pennsylvania-based LGTB group - the William Way LGBT Community Center - over its controversial ties to kink and BDSM parties.

'Senator Casey has been a leader and ally in the fight to protect LGBTQ rights in the U.S. Senate and will continue to support the LGBTQ community in the Commonwealth,' a spokesperson for the Democrat said at the time following the request withdrawal. 

'He believes that consenting adults have the right to do whatever they want in their free time, but these types of appropriations projects warrant the highest level of scrutiny on behalf of taxpayers.'

Senator Casey withdrew his request for federal funding when new information about the third-party use of the facility emerged.'

Casey's office and the Mazzoni Center did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com for comment.
