By Daniel Steck| The University Daily Kansan Verified Donnavan Dillon, a 21-year-old junior at the University of Kansas, community organizer and self-identified member of the queer community, spends his days like most of his peers: he attends classes, does homework, goes to work and hangs out with his friends, when he finds the time. Unlike his peers, however, Dillon was in the Kansas Senate chambers when Senate Bill 233, legislation that would effectively eliminate gender-affirming care for minors in the state, passed in late March.
By Daniel Steck| The University Daily Kansan Verified The Kansas Senate on Wednesday passed the House substitution for Senate Bill 233, which would eliminate the use of any gender-affirming care for minors. The proposed ban will be sent to Gov. Laura Kelly, who vetoed similar legislation in 2023. Under the bill, there would be no access to hormonal therapy treatments, puberty blocking medications and any surgical procedure related to gender or sterilization.
