Transgender adults in Florida are blindsided that a new law also limits their access to health care
apnews.com

The new law that bans gender-affirming care for minors also mandates that adult patients seeking trans health care sign an informed consent form. It also requires a physician to oversee any health care related to transitioning, and for people to see that doctor in person. Those rules have proven particularly onerous because many people received care from nurse practitioners and used telehealth. The law also made it a crime to violate the new requirements.

Another new law that allows doctors and pharmacists to refuse to treat transgender people further limits their options.

Oh nyo a block from a fascist pls no

For all the incessant whining conservatives do about being called fascists, most of the time I see someone call another person "fascist," it's a conservative shrieking it at someone who doesn't want to use the government to oppress vulnerable minorities.

The fact you want to suppress speech and ban as many people as you can who don't agree is what makes you fascist

The fact you want to suppress speech and ban as many people as you can

And what led you to that idea?

Experience with the rainbow and liberals

You're making baseless accusations like you're doing all over this thread.
