Show Notes
Colorados Secretary of State has approved a ballot measure to ban gender-affirming surgeries for minors, a procedure already rare with just 2.1 per 100,000 kids aged 15-17 in 2019. Opponents, including LGBTQ+ rights groups, argue it infringes on family privacy and personal freedoms. The group behind the measure, Protect Kids Colorado, also secured spots for two more initiatives: one barring transgender youth from sports teams that dont match their birth sex, and another mandating life sentences for child sex trafficking convictions. All three measures require a simple majority to pass and would take effect in 2027.
