Texas is now trying to crominalize all gender transition surgeries, not just for kids. In fact, the house bill was written ABOUT banning surgeries for trans kids, but then had them stricken to criminalize all surgeries.
"The bill, H.B. No. 3399, amends existing Texas law regarding procedures and treatments for gender transitioning, gender reassignment, or gender dysphoria, specifically addressing the use of public funds for these services. Key changes include the removal of references to "children" in the context of prohibited procedures, thereby broadening the scope to apply to individuals of any age. The bill prohibits healthcare providers from performing surgeries that sterilize individuals, administering certain prescription drugs that induce infertility, or removing healthy body parts, while also outlining exceptions for specific medical conditions and ongoing treatments initiated before June 1, 2025."
