In an effort to protect children and enforce the laws as written, I am issuing an emergency regulation clarifying that, because gender transition interventions are experimental, Missouri law already prohibits performing them in the absence of specific guardrails.
As Attorney General, I will protect children and enforce the laws as written, which includes upholding state law on experimental gender transition interventions.
Even Europe recognizes that mutilating children for the sake of a woke, leftist agenda has irreversible consequences, and countries like Sweden, Norway, and the United Kingdom have all sharply curtailed these procedures.
I am dedicated to using every legal tool at my disposal to stand in the gap and protect children from being subject to inhumane science experiments.
For gender transition interventions, those guardrails must include at least:
Specific informed-consent disclosures, such as informing patients that the FDA has not approved puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones to treat gender dysphoria and the FDA has issued a warning that puberty blockers can lead to brain swelling and blindness
Another guardrail includes prohibiting gender transition interventions when the provider fails to meet certain standards, such as ensure that the patient has received a full psychological or psychiatric assessment of no fewer than 15 hourly sessions over 18 months
