Friday, the Minnesota Senate voted to pass a House-approved bill that will prevent state courts or officials from complying with child removal requests, extraditions, arrests or subpoenas related to gender-affirming health care that a person receives or provides in Minnesota.

Physicians who practice gender-affirming care in Minnesota, and families who've sought it out for their transgender children or teenagers, have said the bill will go a long way to ensure that they can continue to access treatment without fear of other states' laws. Some have said they've already seen an uptick in prospective patients from states where their options have been eliminated.

I get your point -- it's not enough -- but this isn't nothing. The article talks about people coming in from other states to take advantage of these laws, so we have evidence it's not nothing.

We have to understand how disconnected we look when we say "this is actually no different from Florida." The better approach is "sure, Democrats are better, but they're awful in 10 other ways and they will never do enough, fast enough."
