Summary of Bill HR 1866

Bill 119 hr 1866, also known as the "Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act Amendment," aims to make changes to the existing Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act. The proposed amendment would disqualify any state from receiving funding under the Act if they discriminate against parents or guardians who oppose certain medical, surgical, pharmacological, psychological treatment, or clothing and social changes related to affirming the subjective claims of gender identity expressed by a minor if such claimed identity is inconsistent with the minor's biological sex.

In simpler terms, this bill would prevent states from receiving funding if they discriminate against parents or guardians who do not support a minor's gender identity that does not align with their biological sex. This means that states would not be able to receive financial support under the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act if they penalize or discriminate against parents or guardians who do not agree with certain treatments or changes related to a minor's gender identity.

The purpose of this bill is to protect the rights of parents and guardians who may have differing beliefs or opinions regarding a minor's gender identity. It aims to ensure that states do not penalize or discriminate against individuals who do not support certain treatments or changes related to a minor's gender identity that is inconsistent with their biological sex. Overall, Bill 119 hr 1866 seeks to address issues of discrimination and ensure that all individuals, including parents and guardians, are treated fairly and respectfully in matters related to a minor's gender identity.
