The Rising Influence of Transgender Health Bills in the US
TL;DR
Do No Harm, a nonprofit founded by Dr. Stanley Goldfarb, has become a significant leader in statehouses seeking to ban gender-affirming care for transgender youths, producing model legislation that has been used in at least three states. The organization had lobbyists registered in at least three states and in Florida in 2023. Do No Harm's model legislation on gender-affirming care has been criticized for using technical medical terminology as political rhetoric to scare people.
