This bill makes it a Class 4 felony for doctors and medical professionals to perform certain surgeries or prescribe specific medications to minors for the purpose of addressing gender dysphoria or affirming a gender identity that differs from their biological sex. The prohibited treatments include gender transition surgeries, mastectomies, puberty blockers, and hormone therapies at certain doses. The bill creates new criminal penalties but does not change existing state law—it adds these prohibitions for the first time.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
