One issue that states will have when passing anti-trans laws is that people can still obtain that care out of state or they can ship in medication, similar to the self managed abortion issue.

Anti-trans and anti-abortion activists are now targeting patients and caregivers.

Although the language is not completely clear, the language leaves it open for an overzealous prosecutor to define "consenting to administering gender affirming care to a person" to include the trans person getting the care themselves.

You can consent from 18-21 in Mississippi.

Likewise, if you take medication back into the state and administer it, you would be guilty of "consenting to or administering" it.

It seems that Republicans are in a rush to be as cruel as possible for trans people.

The bill could also ban the practice of taking your trans youth outside of the state to obtain the care, if it determines the "consent" occurred within Mississippi's lines.

The bill banning gender affirming care for trans youth in Mississippi passed with a 78-28 margin. This bill should absolutely be taken seriously in the state. Mississippi's under-18 ban went from committee hearing to full house floor vote in under 24 hours.

Mississippi's house passed a ban on gender affirming care for trans youth.

A new bill would raise the age to 21, define as child abuse, and ban CONSENTING to it.

It would be "felony gender disfigurement" with 5 year terms.

Consenting To Trans Care Under 21 Could Be A Felony In New Mississippi Bill

The crime carries a 10 year prison sentence. This is the latest in anti-trans bills that target adult populations. Some states continue to seek the criminalization of trans people and caregivers.

This bill would literally ban trans youth from unisex restrooms "unless they had bottom surgery."

1) Trans youth do not get bottom surgery.
2) North Dakota has a bill that would ban bottom surgery for trans youth.

So it's an all out ban from UNISEX restrooms!

It's cruel.

Now we have a bill that bans ALL accommodations for trans students explicitly. It seeks to erase trans people from schools and adds on the litterbox hoax at the very end of the section.

There have been over 20 legislators to cite "kids identifying as cats" to ban basic accommodations for trans people but this is the first bill to actually attempt to put it into law.

This is how far anti-trans panic has gone.

“Here's a thread of the 20 politicians who've falsely claimed this year that schools are accommodating who kids identify as cats, putting litter boxes on campus for them”

Twitter

Madness.

A bill has dropped in North Dakota that bans "accommodations for students identifying as animals," a rehash of the infamous litterbox hoax.

It is being cited to also ban trans students from UNISEX restrooms.

Bill Cites Litterbox Hoax To Ban Trans Kids From Bathrooms In North Dakota

The latest anti-trans bill in North Dakota would ban accommodations for "students perceiving themselves to be animal species." This stems from a hoax perpetuated by Libs of TikTok.
