Renumber the remaining subsections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.
| EFFECT: Removes the limitation that a conviction or disciplinary action must be based solely on a license holder's violation of another state's laws prohibiting participation in any reproductive health services or gender affirming treatment in order to not constitute unprofessional conduct or not serve as the basis for discipline in Washington. Specifies that the bill does not prohibit a disciplining authority from taking disciplinary action on charges that are unrelated to participation in reproductive health care services or gender affirming treatment that would have been lawful if it occurred entirely in Washington.
