Parental Rights Protection: Gender-Transition Interventions for Children
This bill aims to prevent state child protective services from removing a child from parental custody solely due to the parent's reluctance or refusal to consent to gender-transition interventions for their child. Such refusal cannot be used as evidence of abuse or neglect. The bill also defines "biological sex" and "gender-transition intervention," which are central to its application.
