Creates a federal right to sue doctors and hospitals for certain medical interventions on children.
This bill would create a new federal way for children and their parents to sue doctors, hospitals, or clinics. They could sue if a child's healthy body parts were harmed by specific medical procedures. These procedures are those meant to change a child's natural development or biological sex. Families could seek money for costs, emotional distress, and possibly extra damages.
Today, there is no specific federal law allowing children or their parents to sue health care providers for damages from medical interventions that alter a child's natural development or sex. If this bill passes, it would create a federal private right of action, letting individuals who received such interventions as children, or their parents, sue for damages, with strict liability for interventions after the bill's enactment.
