CITY PASSES RESOLUTION TO BECOME A SANCTUARY FOR GENDER-AFFIRMING CARE

According to the Associated Press, Kansas City approved a resolution on May 10 to proclaim it a sanctuary for those receiving or providing gender-affirming care. This move is in contrast with the state government, after Missouri’s Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced a rule last month requiring 18 months of therapy before receiving gender-affirming care.

The resolution states that the city will not take legal action against anyone receiving or providing gender-affirming care. It also states that if the state passes a law asking for legal action, the city will make enforcing that law their lowest priority.

City is valued,” said Merrique Jenson, a transgender woman and founder of Transformations KC. “It would minimize the legal violence toward trans people in accessing gender-affirming care.” TEXAS MISSOURI
