- LGBTQ+ advocates blast law blocking doctors from gender questions
LGBTQ+ advocacy groups criticize a Tennessee law prohibiting doctors from asking minors about gender identity, calling it 'medical censorship' that could harm transgender youth. The law, House Bill 1665, passed with no Democratic support and takes effect in October, requiring parental consent for such questions and restricting insurance-related gender inquiries.
