Bill Summary
AN ACT TO PROTECT MINORS FROM ADMINISTRATION OF PUBERTY BLOCKERS AND CROSS-SEX HORMONES AND OTHER RELATED ACTIONS, PROCEDURES, AND TREATMENTS.
AI Summary
This bill prohibits medical professionals from performing certain procedures and administering certain medications on minors (individuals under 18 years of age) to facilitate a change in the minor's gender presentation or identity. Specifically, the bill bans surgeries that result in sterilization, mastectomies, and the administration of puberty blockers, testosterone, and estrogen, except in cases where the minor has a medically verifiable genetic disorder of sexual development. Any medical professional who engages in these banned practices would be subject to disciplinary action, including the revocation of their license and a civil penalty. The bill also prohibits health care providers that receive state funds from furnishing any services related to gender transition procedures for minors. The bill is set to take effect on October 1, 2023.
