One law bans minors and incarcerated Missourians from accessing puberty blockers, hormones or gender-affirming surgeries — all treatments that are widely supported by mainstream medical groups. Those under 18 who have already begun treatment may continue their regimens. The second law prohibits transgender athletes from competing in sports that align with their gender identity.
A week into Pride month, Gov. Mike Parson signed legislation Wednesday banning minors from beginning gender-affirming care and limiting sports participation for transgender athletes.
In a press release announcing his decision to sign the bills, Parson said he supports every person’s right to “his or her own pursuit of happiness.”

Good as long as it is for kids. Title is misleading. It states transgender resident when it is about kids. I am for that. Whenyo are an adult go get doen what you want but kids don't know if they want to be Barbie or a spaceman or Batman...When they are mature enought to make that decision then go for it. If you think they are able to make that decison under the age of lets's say, 12 for exampl, then they must be mature enough to be able to drive, get a gun, join the military, work in factories etc.
