Idaho House passes bill criminalizing gender-affirming medical care for transgender minors

A bill criminalizing gender-affirming health care for minors overwhelmingly passed the Idaho House Tuesday, despite warnings from opponents who said it would likely increase suicide rates among teens…The bill, which would subject physicians to felony charges if they provide puberty blockers, hormone treatment or gender-affirming surgeries to transgender youth under 18, is just one of several targeting Idaho’s LGBTQ+ residents this year. Proponents of the bill have acknowledged that gender-affirming surgeries on minors are not currently being performed in Idaho.
