HOUSE BILL 71
Law
Genital mutilation of a child
VULNERABLE CHILD PROTECTION ACT – Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding vulnerable child protection.
RS29985C2 / H0071
The Vulnerable Child Protective Act would prohibit puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and sex reassignment surgeries for children under the age of 18 when administered or performed for the purpose of changing the appearance of a child's sex. These medical and surgical interventions can cause irreversible physical alterations; and some render the patient sterile or with lifelong sexual dysfunction, while others mutilate healthy body organs. This legislation also provides for exemptions for medically necessary uses of these drugs and procedures.
There is no anticipated fiscal impact on the general fund because it requires no expenditure of State funds nor is there an impact on local governments.
