This law does not give State custody of kids “if you refuse to sterilise them & chop off their body parts”. It has a line allowing emergency custody where a child can’t access medically necessary gender affirming care. In such a situation this would not include surgery. https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/518D.204 https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/543.23 https://minnesotareformer.com/2023/06/30/misinformation-obscures-standards-guiding-gender-affirming-care-for-trans-youth/ https://www.health.state.mn.us/communities/injury/documents/genderaffirmingcare.pdf
