Senator Josh Hawley Introduces Bill Allowing Lawsuits Against Doctors for Trans Procedures on Minors

On January 29, 2025, U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) introduced the Jamie Reed Protecting Our Kids from Child Abuse Act. 

This legislation aims to allow individuals who underwent gender-transition procedures as minors to file lawsuits against the medical professionals and institutions involved in their treatment. The bill's introduction follows an executive order issued by President Donald Trump, which explicitly calls for such legislation.

This move is part of a broader national debate concerning gender-affirming care for minors. As of July 2024, 26 states have enacted some form of ban on gender-affirming care for minors, with 19 of these bans enacted in 2023. These legislative actions have led to significant legal challenges and discussions about the rights of transgender youth and the role of medical professionals in providing care.

It's important to note that major medical associations endorse gender-affirming care for minors, citing its benefits for mental health and overall well-being. However, such care has increasingly come under scrutiny and legislative action in various states.

The introduction of Senator Hawley's bill signifies a continued focus on this issue at the federal level, reflecting ongoing debates about the intersection of healthcare, parental rights, and the well-being of transgender youth in the United States.

Senator Josh Hawley has introduced legislation that would allow individuals who underwent gender-transition procedures as minors to sue the medical professionals and institutions involved.
