New York S07147 prohibits courts from deciding guardianship, custody, or visitation petitions based solely on gender-affirming care.

New York S07147 amends the domestic relations law to prevent courts from granting, denying, or deciding petitions for guardianship, custody, or visitation based solely on the allegation that a parent or guardian is providing or facilitating gender-affirming care for the child. Gender-affirming care is defined as interventions supporting a child's gender identity when it conflicts with their assigned gender at birth. This change aims to ensure that courts consider broader factors in these decisions.
