Tennessee Bans Gender-Confirming Treatment for Young Minors
Reading now: 169
Tennessee approved a law this week that bans gender-confirming hormone treatment for prepubescent minors, the second state to enact such legislation affecting transgender youths.
Gov. Bill Lee, a Republican, signed the Tennessee bill into law on Tuesday. It follows a measure approved earlier this year in Arkansas that prohibits gender-confirming treatments and surgery for minors.
In April, Gov. Asa Hutchinson — in a rare move for a Republican elected official — vetoed that legislation, though his veto was later overridden by the State Legislature.
Unlike Arkansas’s law, Tennessee’s takes a narrower approach, banning doctors from giving gender-confirming hormone treatment to prepubescent minors.
