What this can and cannot do

This is a request, not a law. The City Council is asking the New York State Legislature and the Governor to act, because the subject is outside the city's authority. Passing it commits the city to a position; it does not change the rule.

Summary

Establishing a gender-affirming care program in the department of health to ensure the continuity of gender-affirming care services in the state ( A.8191/S.7985).
