Maine bill would allow gender-affirming care for out-of-state children
"Democratic state representatives are proposing a bill to expand gender affirming care access in Maine.
The bill would allow Maine to take temporary emergency jurisdiction over children who haven't been able to get gender-affirming care in other states and provide them with those services.
It also would protect healthcare providers in Maine from out-of-state subpoenas surrounding the care.
This comes after state lawmakers gave preliminary approval to another bill that would allow 16- and 17-year-olds to receive gender-affirming care without parental consent."

It is interesting that in many states, (41) the practice of female genital mutilation is outlawed. But the attempt to physically change by castration or any kind of genital mutilation in the name of “gender- affirming” is permitted?
