A Nebraska law that combined abortion restrictions with another measure to limit gender-affirming health care for minors does not violate a state constitutional amendment requiring bills to stick to a single subject, a majority of the Nebraska Supreme Court ruled Friday.

The state’s high court acknowledged in its ruling that abortion and gender-affirming care “are distinct types of medical care,” but found the law does not violate Nebraska’s single-subject rule because both abortion and transgender health fall under the subject of medical care.

The majority relied, in part, on a passage from an 1895 ruling to find the state constitution offers wide latitude on what composes a single subject.

    you have to be careful with hormones, they irreparably and permanently change your body. my body was filled with testosterone until I was 16 and it has destroyed my body. it even changed my bones. i really really regret not going on hrt earlier, all of this could’ve been prevented.

      Yeah, I imagine. Were you properly warned about consequences before you started the therapy?
