Transgender individuals who rely on federal health programs or federally subsidized insurance would lose access to gender-affirming medical care. This includes hormone therapy, puberty blockers, and surgical procedures. The bill creates a sweeping ban across all federal funding streams, meaning transgender people enrolled in Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, VA health care, or ACA marketplace plans with premium subsidies would all be affected. Those with private, employer-sponsored insurance not receiving federal subsidies would not be directly impacted.
“No funds authorized or appropriated by Federal law, and none of the funds in any trust fund to which funds are authorized or appropriated by Federal law, shall be expended for any gender transition procedures.”
