IMDMA-ACCESS GENDER CARE

Amends the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. Excludes from the definition of "abuse" obtaining, seeking, or facilitating lawful health care for a minor child by a parent or person in loco parentis. Requires the court to consider in determining parental responsibilities and parenting time a parent's affirmation of the child's gender identity or gender expression in a way that promotes the child's overall health and well-being. Allows a court to modify an order restricting parental responsibilities if it finds persistent, continuing interference with the child's ability to access lawful health care. Declares that a law of another state that authorizes the removal of a child from a parent or person acting as a parent based on the parent or person acting as a parent allowing a child to receive lawful health care is against the public policy of the State and shall not be enforced or applied in a case pending in a court in the State. Amends the Uniform Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act. Provides that the presence of a child in the State for the purpose of obtaining lawful health care is sufficient to meet the jurisdiction of the State for an initial child custody determination for temporary emergency matters. Provides that the State is not an inconvenient forum if lawful health care to the child is at issue in which the law or policy of the other state that may take jurisdiction limits the ability of a parent or person acting as a parent to obtain lawful health care for the child. Effective immediately.
