One transgender woman, Sheena, left Florida to move to Minnesota. Florida has recently passed extremely harsh legislation targeting the transgender community, and Sheena cited this legislation in her decision to move with her partner, stating that she “had to leave Florida within one month [of the transgender medical ban on adults] to avoid having my care halted.”

Look, I don't pretend to understand the issues trans people face, but I can't imagine what reason they could reasonably have for preventing adults from accessing medication. If someone wants to use a drug, they should be allowed to.

I thought conservatives were in favor of small government? Surely that means the government should restrict as little as possible, no?

Conservatives are in favor of small government in the same way Republicans are the party of Lincoln; it's something that may have been true once, but lacks any evidence of being currently accurate. These sayings are just vestigial phrases that became irrelevant once electing a black man as President broke the minds of a significant chunk of the nation.
