AI-generated summary, report an errorThis resolution states the sense of the House of Representatives that the federal government has a duty to adopt a "Transgender Bill of Rights." It lists steps such as amending civil rights, housing, credit, and employment laws to bar discrimination based on gender identity and sex characteristics. It also calls for removing restrictions on gender-affirming care, allowing an "X" gender marker on federal IDs, requiring TRICARE and the Department of Veterans Affairs to pay for gender-affirming care, and setting safety rules for transgender people in government custody. The resolution expresses a position and does not by itself change any law.
