‘Sanctuary state’: Walz signed law making Minnesota destination for transgender therapies for kids

Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota recently signed into law a bill that makes his state a destination for transgender therapies for children. This law prohibits health insurers from denying coverage for gender transition services, thus protecting the rights of transgender individuals and affording them access to the necessary medical procedures and treatments. This move positions Minnesota as a sanctuary state for transgender therapies for children, signalling the state’s commitment to promoting inclusivity and diversity.
