California will "offer refuge" to transgender minors and their families "if they're criminalized in their home states."

These treatments sterilize and/or disfigure patients irreversibly.

Any out-of-state arrest warrant for transgender treatments on children and teens will be given "low priority"

"We are going to provide them with refuge and we’re not going to send them back and we’re not going to honor subpoenas,” said Senator Scott Wiener, who authored the bill. “And our law enforcement is not going to enforce the laws of Texas and Alabama criminalizing these families.”

Governor Gavin Newsom boasted that he was supporting "parental choice"

"“In California we believe in equality and acceptance. We believe that no one should be prosecuted or persecuted for getting the care they need — including gender-affirming care,” Newsom said in a statement when he signed the bill into law. “Parents know what’s best for their kids, and they should be able to make decisions around the health of their children without fear. We must take a stand for parental choice

Whoever "knowingly performs gender affirming care on a minor" is guilty of a class C felony, punishable by 10 to 25 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. It has 37 Republican co-sponsors and bans federal funding for sex change treatments.

The bill explains that the term “gender affirming care” refers to over a dozen procedures and treatments including castration, orchiectomy, scrotoplasty, vasectomy, hysterectomy, oophorectomy, ovariectomy, metoidioplasty, penectomy, vaginoplasty, vaginectomy, vulvoplasty, thyrochondroplasty, chondrolaryngoplasty, and mastectomy.
