Sex Reassignment Surgery for Minors:
Sex reassignment surgical procedures and hormone therapies cause permanent and irreparable harm to the minds, bodies, and reproductive organs of children. When clinical studies show that up to 94 percent of boys and 88 percent of girls overcome their gender dysphoria and accept their biological sex by the time they reach adulthood, it is essential that medical professionals don’t do harm to these children by making irreversible changes to their reproductive systems.

Senate Bill 515: Idaho Patient Act (IPACT)
After a two hour debate on the House floor today (02.24.20), a majority of the House voted to pass House Bill 515, with a vote of 49 (in favor), 20 (opposed), and one absent. The bill is now on its way to the Senate.
The Idaho Patient Act "seeks to correct the gaps in the law by restoring basic free-market principles of
transparency and access to information in the healthcare marketplace"; however, the last thing this bill does is restore the free market in healthcare. In turn, this bill severely curtails a doctor's ability to collect on medical debts. Moreover, it will be more of a cost burden for the patient and brings more regulation to Idaho.
Use our new “Contact Your State Legislators” tool to voice your opposition to IPACT and encourage the Senate to seek better solutions to this issue.
