Bill overview
This bill, the Protecting Minors from Medical Malpractice Act of 2023, aims to establish a legal pathway for individuals under 18 who undergo gender-transition procedures to seek compensation for resulting harm. It creates a 30-year window for lawsuits against medical practitioners who perform these procedures on minors, with specific criteria for determining liability related to interstate commerce and the use of commercial means. Furthermore, the bill prohibits medical practitioners from being required to perform gender-transition procedures and restricts federal funding to states that mandate such procedures.
