Pennsylvania SB843, known as the Do No Harm Act, prohibits health care practitioners from performing or administering certain sex transitioning procedures on minors, including puberty blockers and hormone treatments, if the sole purpose is to enable the minor to identify with or live as a purported identity inconsistent with their sex or to treat discomfort from a discordance between the minor's sex and asserted identity. The bill also prohibits insurers and government programs from covering these procedures.
