Lambda Legal today added its voice to the chorus of praise for
AB 2119, which was signed into law by California Governor Jerry Brown.
His signing of the bill made California the first state in the union to explicitly guarantee gender-affirming health care for transgender youth in the state’s foster care system.
AB 2119 was introduced by State Assembly member Todd Gloria and co-sponsored by Lambda Legal, Equality California, the American Civil Liberties Union of California, the National Center for Lesbian Rights and the Los Angeles LGBT Center.
