The Help Not Harm bill will limit doctors from performing any sterilization surgery, including castration, hysterectomy, and vasectomy, or prescribing any drug that delays or stops puberty for anyone under 18.“South Dakota’s kids are our future. With this legislation, we are protecting kids from harmful, permanent medical procedures,” said Noem. “I will always stand up for the next generation of South Dakotans.

The legislation passed the state Senate in a 30-4 vote last Thursday. The American Civil Liberties Union of South Dakota called the bill an example of"vast government overreach that undermines the fundamental rights of parents."Last year, Noem signed legislation that limits female school sports leagues in public K-12 schools and some private schools and universities to students who are biologically female.
