Show Notes

Florida lawmakers attempted to pass bills making it a felony for anyone to help minors get gender-affirming care, with Republican Representative Lauren Melo sponsoring the measures. The bills were supported by a lobbyist from Do No Harm, a Washington-based group, who provided draft language, talking points, and an op-ed. Despite progress in committees, the bills stalled before full votes. This push for restrictions on gender-affirming care for minors is part of a broader trend in at least 27 states, with transgender Floridians reporting feeling less safe and considering leaving the state.
