Bill Summary

Provide for youth health protection

AI Summary

This bill, the "Youth Health Protection Act", aims to enhance the protection of minors from undergoing irreversible medical procedures, such as gender reassignment surgery and puberty-blocking drugs, to change their biological sex prior to reaching the age of majority. The bill defines key terms like "cross-sex hormones", "gender dysphoria", and "gender reassignment surgery", and prohibits healthcare providers from prescribing puberty-blocking drugs, cross-sex hormones, or performing gender reassignment surgery on minors to treat gender dysphoria. The bill also establishes civil penalties for violations and provides for enforcement through administrative and judicial means, allowing individuals to bring claims and recover damages, attorney's fees, and other appropriate relief.
