Why the model tagged it this way: The bill requires a study and report focused on health impacts and disparities for transgender and non-binary racial/ethnic minorities, including identification of ways to reduce health care discrimination/disparities and increase access to services. This is a transgender-specific provision on health issues with no changes to firearms, abortion, or immigration enforcement.
