Stop Funding Genital Mutilation Act
This bill prohibits federal Medicaid and CHIP funding for specific medical procedures related to gender transition, as defined in the legislation. It amends the Social Security Act to block funding for surgeries (like hysterectomy, phalloplasty, or mastectomy), hormone therapies (including puberty blockers or supraphysiologic doses), and certain cosmetic procedures when performed to change physical characteristics to align with a person's gender identity. Exceptions apply for medically necessary treatments, such as puberty suppression for precocious puberty, correction of disorders of sex development, or life-threatening conditions. The bill directly affects Medicaid/CHIP recipients seeking these covered procedures and requires states to exclude them from funded services. It does not ban the procedures themselves but restricts federal financial support for them.
