The bill amends Wyoming's civil procedure laws to extend the statute of limitations for civil actions related to gender transition services provided to minors. Specifically, it introduces a new subsection (c) to W.S. 1-3-105, stating that such actions must be initiated by the minor's twenty-first birthday, regardless of existing statutes. The bill also provides detailed definitions for terms related to gender transition services, including "cross-sex hormones," "gender reassignment surgery," and "puberty-blocking drugs," among others.
The act is set to apply to causes of action arising on or after July 1, 2024, and will take effect on the same date. This legislation aims to clarify the legal framework surrounding gender transition services for minors and establish a specific timeline for potential legal claims.
