Governor Tony Evers has vetoed a bill that would have banned gender-transitioning medical treatment for minors.
The governor had said he would veto the bill and any other anti-LGBTQ legislation prior to the bill being sent to his desk. Evers says in a press release that healthcare providers should be trusted to give medically appropriate care to their patients. Republican Wisconsin Representatives introduced the bill in late September, and it was presented to the Governor on November 30th.
