Mark Takano: “I ask you to reconsider this provision.”

Young LGBTQI+ people should not have to be subjected to this kind of cruelty—especially by licensed health care providers.

Providers who engage in these practices are actively endangering the wellbeing of young LGBTQI+ people and defrauding their families by promising to “fix” something that is simply not broken.

Those who oversee health plans must have access to this data to ensure fair pricing for those receiving employer sponsored healthcare.
