If signed by Gov. Spencer Cox, the law will ban doctors from providing gender-affirming health care to transgender minors in Utah.
The pause, the bill says, is to allow the Utah Department of Health and Human Services to look at data surrounding the use of those medical treatments and make recommendations for policy changes to lawmakers, but does not set a deadline for the completion of that analysis.
“I will say from my heart, and the heart of everybody I know here on the hill, whether they agree with this bill or not, compassion and love are at the base of all of this,” Kennedy said, urging his colleagues to give final approval to the bill. “We’ve received so many emails, texts and phone calls from parents begging for their families and children, many of them are children I’ve known for years. We see you, and we love your beautiful children and we will continue to work to mitigate the impact of this into their lives,” Escamilla said.
