Protecting Minors from Medical Malpractice Act of 2025

What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill would allow people to sue a medical practitioner for up to 30 years after they turn 18 if the practitioner performed a gender-transition procedure on them when they were a minor and the procedure caused physical, psychological, emotional, or other harms. It would also block certain federal health funding to any state that requires medical practitioners to perform gender-transition procedures. The bill defines gender-transition procedures as certain surgeries or hormone therapies meant to change a person's body to match a sex different from their biological sex, but it does not include treatments for people born with unusual sex characteristics or treatments for infections, injuries, or life-threatening conditions.
