This is concerning for trans kids, but also this same pathway could be used to restrict adult transgender care nationwide.
The article mentions that gender-affirming care would be banned at any hospital that accepted Medicaid or Medicare dollars (for any service), but most GOP proposals along these lines have also applied to clinics or any sort of medical service provider who accepts Medicaid/Medicare dollars. It means the vast majority of HRT prescribers would no longer be allowed to prescribe HRT for gender affirming reasons.

Trying to bog Dems down in 2026 with trans issues, since unfortunately, it worked well for him.
