To amend chapter 55 of title 18, United States Code, to establish a criminal offense for the transportation of a minor for a gender transition procedure.

# Summary of HR 7420 **What the Bill Would Do** HR 7420 would create a new federal crime making it illegal to transport a minor across state lines for the purpose of obtaining gender transition medical procedures. If passed, it would establish criminal penalties—potentially including fines and imprisonment—for anyone who transports a child to another state to access these procedures, presumably when such procedures are restricted or prohibited in the child's home state. **Who It Affects and Key Provisions** This bill would primarily affect minors seeking gender transition care, their parents or guardians, and medical providers. It would apply specifically to interstate transportation, meaning moving a child across state lines for these procedures.

The bill does not specify which procedures would be covered or what criminal penalties would apply, as those details are not included in the summary provided. **Current Status** As of now, HR 7420 is in committee, meaning it has been introduced but has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House. The bill was sponsored by Representative Dan Crenshaw (R-TX).
