Republicans actually want pedophilia legalized. People like Senator Jamie Pederson have said that if a girl has her period, even if as young as 8, then she should be in charge of her own sexual decisions.

This is Game of Thrones level creepy.

    she should be in charge of her own sexual decisions

    Not if she decides to use contraceptives, get an abortion, or have sex because she wants to. Obviously. But if she's forced into something then that's on her.

    Do you have a source on that? I tried googling his name but all I got was that 13+ year olds have a right to privacy for their mental health treatments, not having to notify their parents.

    Check further in the WA standard article. The discussion is about Healthcare, but the debate is that there is an agenda. This is the actual quote. By this logic menstruation equals the age of consent.

    "If they’re old enough to get pregnant, they’re old enough to make their own decisions about what happens with their bodies, and parents do not have the right to change that,”
