The South Dakota Senate approved a bill on Thursday that would ban the provision of hormone treatment, puberty blockers, and genital surgery for trans youth.

The bill, which was passed in a vote of 30–4, would also force health care professionals who violate it to lose their licenses and be sued. The measure will now go to the desk of Gov. Kristi Noem, a Republican, who has indicated she will sign the bill into law.
