I support gender-affirming care for transgender youth.

I am writing to let my legislators know that I support gender-affirming health care for transgender youth.
For the last two years, members of the General Assembly have heard extensive committee testimony from transgender people, their families, and health care providers about best-practice gender-affirming care.
Institutions including the Endocrine Society, American Medical Society, American Psychological Society, American Psychiatric Association, and American Academy of Pediatrics all advocate for supporting children as they navigate gender identity concerns. And they all agree that safely guided gender transition in children (in collaboration with parents and medical providers) is not a criminal offense, but standard and ethical practice.
Tennessee should not unilaterally change the standard of care in any area of medicine and then put it in a punitive form in our law code. That creates extreme distress for patients and confusion for medical professionals.
Gender-affirming care makes it possible for transgender adults and youth to live better lives. Please, step back from the sensationalist headlines and fear-mongering and talk with transgender people and health care experts.
Thank you for considering my views.
