Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee has signed legislation that blocks doctors from providing certain treatments to anyone under 18 if the procedure is used as part of transgender healthcare
NASHVILLE—Tennessee’s governor on Thursday signed legislation that blocks physicians from providing treatments to minors related to their
gender identity, one of dozens of bills moving through legislatures that would impose limits on access to transgender healthcare for children and teenagers. The law, signed by GOP Gov. Bill Lee, prohibits doctors from providing certain treatments to anyone under 18 even with parental consent if the procedure is used as part of transgender healthcare. Those treatments could include prescribing medications that can delay the onset of puberty or hormones that can cause physical changes such as the development of facial hair or breasts.
