Both chambers of the Kentucky Legislature voted Wednesday to override Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto on Senate Bill 150 that would severely restrict the lives of trans youth in the state.
The law will: Ban gender-affirming medical care, including treatments that delay puberty, other forms of hormone therapy and surgery, for trans and nonbinary people under 18 years old.
Require revoking the licenses of doctors who provide such services. Tell public schools to block trans students from using bathrooms and locker rooms that match their gender identity.
Allow public school teachers to misgender trans students. Prevent public schools from allowing educational presentations that study gender identity or sexual orientation.
