St. Louis mayor issues order to defend trans community.
St. Louis Mayor Signs Executive Order to Promote Healthcare for Transgender Patients
Mayor Tishaura Jones of St. Louis signed an executive order on Thursday to promote healthcare for transgender patients. The order is a response to the “overwhelming attacks” on the transgender community by the state capital, which recently passed a law banning puberty blockers for minors.
The executive order promises to support transgender athletes, provide all-gender bathrooms, and organize a summit on gender-transition care in the future, among other things. Mayor Jones stated that “everyone deserves to thrive, regardless of their gender identity or expression.”
“Children deserve evidence-based care, not irreversible interventions already rejected by health authorities in many countries,” said Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey, who dropped an order restricting doctors from prescribing cross-sex hormones and genital surgeries for both children and adults in the wake of the ban from the Missouri General Assembly.
Bailey is now pursuing regulations for “dangerous experimental procedures,” including “genital mutilation and castration” even for adults identifying as transgender.
Protecting the Trans Community
Mayor Jones signed the executive order to show the city’s commitment to protecting the trans community. She acknowledged that the recent attacks from Jefferson City Republicans could force trans youth and their families to leave the state. This order sends a message that St. Louis will fight against bigotry and protect its trans community.
