Abstract
(S2907 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2025-09-18): Read twice and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
Why this matters
The Chloe Cole Act represents a federal legislative attempt to restrict gender-transition medical interventions for minors, a category previously regulated primarily at the state level. If enacted, it would meaningfully change access to puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and surgical interventions for transgender youth, with contested framing between child-protection advocates and LGBTQ medical-access advocates. Its status as a Senate-introduced bill referred to HELP places it early in the legislative pipeline.
