Seconded by Alderperson Fleming. WHEREAS, In June 2023 Governor Hochul signed legislation protecting persons seeking gender- affirming medical and psychological care in New York State. Our state is now one of twelve states with such protections. This legislation will • Prohibit consideration of other states’ laws permitting removal of children from their homes when their guardians’ consent to gender-affirming care. • Prohibit law enforcement agencies from cooperating with or providing information to any person or agency outside of New York State regarding lawful gender affirming care performed in New York State. • Prohibit the issuance of subpoenas related to proceedings in other states against people who come to New York for gender-affirming care. • Prohibit the arrest of anyone for performing or aiding in the lawful performance of gender- affirming care in New York State. • Prohibit issuers of medical malpractice insurance from taking action against a health care provider solely because that provider offers gender affirming care. City Administration Committee Meeting August 23, 2023 Page 5 WHEREAS, Twenty-one states have banned or limited gender-affirming care for minors, exacerbating the despair and alienation of those patients and their families, increasing the risk of mental illness and suicide, and increasing risks associated with “quack” or “back-alley” care; and WHEREAS, Multiple healthcare institutions across the country have curtailed or have considered curtailing gender-affirming healthcare services in response to legal challenges, perception of legal risk, harassment, or threats of violence; and WHEREAS, Licensed medical, nursing, and mental health care practitioners provide research-based gender-affirming services in the City of Ithaca and in facilities elsewhere in Tompkins County; and WHEREAS, The City of Ithaca recognizes the vital importance of research-based compassionate care to people seeking gender-affirming services; and WHEREAS, it is necessary and appropriate to exercise the authority vested in the City of Ithaca Charter, including the coordinated and integrated direction, supervision, and control of all City of Ithaca departments, boards, commissions, and other agencies, to protect healthcare professionals and persons lawfully seeking, receiving, or assisting others who are seeking or receiving gender affirming care; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED That the City of Ithaca endorses and supports the New York State law protecting access to gender- affirming care to minors and adults. We are grateful to State Senator Lea Webb and State Assemblywoman Anna Kelles for co-sponsoring this bill in the New York Assembly. We urge relevant agencies and authorities in New York State to continue to license and regulate legitimate research-based treatment. AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED That the City of Ithaca: • Will protect access to lawful medical and mental health care • Will not cooperate with law enforcement agencies from outside New York State seeking information about or extradition of clients seeking or practitioners offering lawful care; • Re-affirms that gender expression or identity is not grounds for discrimination against people seeking housing, employment, or access to services in the City of Ithaca. AND FINALLY, THAT In the event any law or regulation is passed in New York State that imposes criminal punishment, civil liability, administrative penalties, or professional sanctions on a person for providing, seeking, receiving, or assisting another person who is seeking gender affirming healthcare, City personnel will make enforcement of said law or regulation their lowest priority.
