Bill Summary

An Act to prohibit certain acts against children and provide a penalty therefor.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits certain medical professionals from performing certain procedures or prescribing certain medications for the purpose of changing or affirming a minor's perception of their sex, if that perception is inconsistent with the minor's biological sex. The prohibited practices include specific surgical procedures, puberty-blocking medications, and hormone therapy. However, the bill provides an exception for minors born with medically-verifiable genetic disorders of sex development. The bill also designates violations as a Class 1 misdemeanor and may be cited as the Vulnerable Child Protection Act.
