SB904 prohibits state funds, Medicaid coverage, and state-owned facilities from being used to provide gender-transition surgeries, puberty blockers, or cross-sex hormones to minors or adults. State officers or employees who intentionally violate the law may be charged with a misdemeanor.
The Oklahoma State Senate passed SB904 on March 25, 2026 by a vote of 39 to 8. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because no person has a right to use taxpayer funds or state facilities for sex-change procedures, let alone force everyone else to pay for them. Sex mutilation, especially against minor children, is a grotesque practice that violates the "unalienable" right to life and limb, but absurdly attempts to erase biological sex with fictional "gender identity" constructs. According to the U.S. Constitution's Bill of Rights and 14th Amendment, every state has a duty to defend the basic humanity of its citizens, each of whom is born distinctly male or female, and, as the Declaration of Independence affirms, created equally in the image of God.
