Legislation Banning Gender Transition Services For Anyone Under 18 Passes Kentucky House

House Bill 470, sponsored by Rep. Jennifer Decker, R-Shelbyville, who entitled it the “Do No Harm Act,” was first approved in the House Judiciary Committee on a 14-7 vote, following an hour and a half of debate, primarily by those opposed to the measure.

Her bill would consider any gender transition services by a medical professional as unethical and unprofessional conduct, with an investigation required by his or her licensing agency. That would require revocation of their license, and termination of any public funding for those found in violation.
