Oklahoma governor makes performing 'irreversible gender transition surgeries' on children a felony
Fox News
Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt has enacted legislation banning gender surgeries for children under 18. Healthcare workers would also be charged with a felony for performing such procedures.
Violators can have their medical licenses revoked or face civil actions from a parent or guardian.
"Last year, I called for a statewide ban on all irreversible gender transition surgeries and hormone therapies on minors so I am thrilled to sign this into law today and protect our kids," Stitt said. "We cannot turn a blind eye to what’s happening across our nation, and as governor, I am proud to stand up for what’s right and ban life-altering transition surgeries on children in the state of Oklahoma."
