Amid national discussions and controversy around transgender issues, Sen. Charles Scott, R-Casper, plans to sponsor a bill for the upcoming Legislative session that would penalize doctors who provide medical care to facilitate sex reassignments for minors, the longtime senator told the Star-Tribune. Scott has not finished drafting the bill yet, so it's impossible to know exactly what the bill's implications will be. "It's an interesting problem, because what you're talking about there is giving somebody a very profound change in the kind of life they're gonna lead," Scott told the Star-Tribune on Monday.
