Nevada SB171 protects the transgender community by preventing state agencies from aiding out-of-state investigations into gender-affirming health.

Nevada SB171 enacts a shield law to protect the transgender community by prohibiting state agencies from providing information or resources to investigations or proceedings initiated in other states that seek to impose liability for gender-affirming health care services legal in Nevada. The bill also restricts the Governor from extraditing individuals charged with crimes related to such services unless the acts would be crimes in Nevada. Additionally, it mandates health care licensing boards to explore reciprocal licensing for out-of-state providers of gender-affirming health care services.
