MAP Report Reveals the Growing Extremism of Efforts to Eliminate Medically Necessary Care for Transgender People in the U.S.
Bills to ban best-practice medical care for transgender people are growing in number, growing in scope, and growing more extreme, according to a report released today by the Movement Advancement Project (MAP). The new MAP report, LGBTQ Policy Spotlight: Bans on Medical Care for Transgender People, provides the most comprehensive look to date at the sweeping attempts to ban and restrict medical care for not only transgender youth-but also transgender adults. Just last week, Missouri became the first state to effectively ban medically necessary care for both youth and adults.
