Georgia Republican introduces bill to make child transgender surgeries, drugs illegal
Georgia Republican State Representative Ginny Ehrhart introduced a bill in the Georgia House of Representatives last week that would ban health care professionals from performing transgender surgeries on children.
The bill specifies criminal penalties for medical professionals who perform surgeries such as mastectomies, vaginoplasties, castration, penectomies, etc. “for the purpose of attempting to affirm the minor’s perception of such minor’s sex, if that perception is inconsistent with such minor’s sex.”
The bill would also ban the administering of medications, such as puberty blockers or hormones, to children for the same purpose.
