A study published by Dutch researchers in 2018 found that the vast majority of people who take cross-sex hormones to “affirm” their so-called transgender identities later undergo surgical removal of sexual organs. No long-term prospective studies ever have been conducted on minors subjected to experimental “gender transition” procedures.

Along with SB 126, Tennessee lawmakers approved two other pro-family bills before the legislative session ended Wednesday. HB 1182 requires businesses to post notices if they let people use bathrooms or other facilities designed for the sex other their own. Another measure would allow students to sue schools that open up sex-specific facilities to members of the opposite sex.

Gov. Lee, who has never once vetoed a bill passed by the legislature, has not stated whether he intends to sign the policies. LifeSite launched a new voter outreach campaign today to help voters contact the governor and encourage him to authorize SB 126.

Tennessee would become the second state to prohibit cross-sex hormones for minors, following the lead of Arkansas, which enacted a broad ban on child “sex change” procedures last month. Similar bills remain under consideration in the legislatures of Texas and Alabama, where they have passed at least one chamber.
