Montana Becomes Latest State To Ban Transgender Drugs, Surgeries for Children
Life Site News | May 1, 2023 | Matt LambHELENA, Montana (LifeSiteNews) – Montana became the latest state to prohibit minors from being chemically or surgically mutilated through transgender drugs and surgeries, joining North Dakota just a week after that state instituted similar protections for gender-confused kids.
Senate Bill 99, signed on Friday by Republican Governor Greg Gianforte, prohibits a variety of scientifically unsound and potentially dangerous drugs and surgeries, including “a vaginectomy, hysterectomy, oophorectomy, ovariectomy, reconstruction of the urethra, metoidioplasty, phalloplasty, scrotoplasty, implantation of erection or testicular protheses, subcutaneous mastectomy, voice surgery, or pectoral implant.”
It also prohibits “surgical procedures, including a penectomy, orchiectomy, vaginoplasty, clitoroplasty, vulvoplasty, augmentation mammoplasty, facial feminization surgery, voice surgery, thyroid cartilage reduction, or gluteal augmentation” as well as puberty blockers.
