Gov. Gavin Newsom signed two bills Thursday intended to protect and bolster access to health care for transgender children and adults.

Senate Bill 107 will ensure that trans children from states like Texas and Idaho that have attempted to limit or criminalize access to gender-affirming health care and their families can take refuge in California.

Newsom also signed Senate Bill 923, which requires health care providers and health insurance companies to provide"culturally competent" training and care to transgender, gender diverse and intersex people. Both laws were authored by Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, who called it"momentous ... for trans-inclusive health care."

Legislators in at least 19 other states have introduced bills similar to SB 107 to provide refuge for trans youth and their parents, according to Wiener.
