Chloe Cole Act aimed at blocking minors from undergoing life-altering transgender surgeries, GOP lawmaker says
Are they actually going to vote on something real?
A Republican lawmaker is teaming up with outspoken detransitioner Chloe Cole to push federal legislation that would block gender-related medical procedures for minors, saying that children are being rushed into receiving treatments with life-altering results.
The Chloe Cole Act is being introduced on Monday as federal legislation aimed at protecting minors from gender-related medical procedures.
Rep. Bob Onder, R-Mo., who is behind the bill, has a medical degree and is sounding the alarm over the impact that gender-related treatments can have on minors. The congressman told Fox News Digital that his bill will not only protect minors from these treatments, but will also give children and parents the right to hold the medical professionals accountable in court.
"We know that in the last 15 years, the transgender movement has convinced tens of thousands of boys and girls that they are born in the wrong body.... And then a chain of transgender clinics has exploited these kids for the ideology and for the profit and really done permanent damage to the health of those kids with wrong sex hormones, puberty blockers and even mutilating surgeries," Onder told Fox News Digital.

The congressman said that the Chloe Cole Act arises from President Donald Trump's January 2025 order titled, "Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation." The order encouraged lawmakers to "work to draft, propose, and promote legislation to enact a private right of action for children and the parents of children whose healthy body parts have been damaged by medical professionals practicing chemical and surgical mutilation." The order noted that statutes of limitations for these cases should be "lengthy."
Cole, who has become a prominent detransition advocate, told Fox News Digital that the legislation is "a vital step in our mission to ensure that no minor in America ever endures the kind of lasting, irreparable damage I experienced."
"While we’ve made significant strides in raising awareness and enacting protections in recent years, the fight is far from over. Too many children remain at risk of irreversible harm from puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgical procedures pushed on them before they can fully understand the consequences," Cole said in a statement provided exclusively to Fox News Digital.
"We must finish what we’ve started and safeguard the next generation from these experimental and barbaric treatments," she added.
