The Austin City Council (ACC) in Texas voted on Thursday to pass a resolution in support of transgender individuals seeking “gender-affirming” care, which appears to be in direct violation of state law that prohibits such acts on minors.

In a 10–1 vote, the ACC passed the resolution directing city resources away from enforcement of state law SB 14 which prohibits “gender transitioning or gender reassignment procedure or treatment” for minors under the age of 18.
