Lisa Demuth on Families & Children

 

 


Don't protect gender affirming care for minors in Minnesota

HF146: Gender-affirming health care; use of subpoenas to gather information prevented.

WUGA (NPR) analysis, April 21, 2023: The Minnesota Senate voted to pass a House-approved bill that will prevent state courts or officials from complying with child removal requests, extraditions, arrests or subpoenas related to gender-affirming health care that a person receives or provides in Minnesota. Physicians who practice gender-affirming care in Minnesota, and families who've sought it out for their transgender children or teenagers, have said the bill will go a long way to ensure that they can continue to access treatment without fear of other states' laws. Republicans in the state legislature have opposed extending legal protections to families traveling for gender care services.

Legislative Outcome:Passed House 68-62-4 on Mar/23/23; passed Senate 34-30-3 on Apr/21/23; Lisa Demuth voted NO; Signed by Governor Tim Walz on Apr/27/23
