Honorable Committee Members, I am writing to express my strong support for HB1356, which addresses the statute of limitations for private rights of action regarding medical procedures intended to alter a minor's gender. This important legislation protects New Hampshire families by: • Providing adequate time for families to understand the full consequences of irreversible medical procedures performed on their children • Ensuring that parents and young adults have sufficient opportunity to seek legal recourse when harmed by gender transition treatments • Holding medical providers accountable for life-altering procedures performed on minors • Protecting other children from similar harm in the future The long-term effects of gender-altering medical interventions often don't become apparent until years later. Families deserve adequate time to seek justice when their children have been harmed by these irreversible procedures. I urge the Judiciary Committee to pass HB1356 and protect New Hampshire's children and families. Respectfully, Timothy C Rochester, NH
