California, land of nuts and fruits...

"Sacramento, California, has been designated a “sanctuary city” for transgender individuals.

Last week, the Sacramento City Council approved a resolution ensuring that city resources — including law enforcement resources — are not used to aid in out-of-state prosecutions of people who come to California seeking out gender-affirming mental health care, hormone therapy, or surgery.

The resolution prohibits city funds from being used to cooperate with any individuals or out-of-state agencies who are investigating people for pursuing treatments that are legal in California.

That means city law enforcement officials should not detain, imprison, or extradite transgender people who have traveled to California seeking out gender-affirming care to their home states, where they could potentially be prosecuted.

Under the resolution, Sacramento police officers are still allowed to investigate suspected criminal activity, but — because gender-affirming care is not criminalized in California — are barred from providing out-of-state agencies or individuals with information about the identities or personal medical information of people seeking out gender-affirming care."
