Gender Delusion Disqualification Act

This bill prohibits individuals with a gender dysphoria diagnosis from occupying certain positions in executive agencies or obtaining or renewing certain federal credentials. (Gender dysphoria refers to the distress that may accompany the incongruence between one's experienced or expressed gender and one's assigned gender.)

Under the bill, an individual with gender dysphoria may not occupy a position for which the employing agency has established mental health standards. Such standards are criteria the agency uses to determine whether an individual's diagnosed mental health condition renders them unable to safely or effectively perform the duties of a position. The criteria may be established through agency regulation, medical evaluation protocols, or government-wide personnel suitability standards.

The bill also prohibits individuals with gender dysphoria from obtaining or renewing any license, certificate, or other credential that is issued by an executive agency and is conditioned on the individual satisfying specified mental health standards. For example, the Federal Aviation Administration prohibits airline pilot licenses from being issued to individuals with certain mental health diagnoses (e.g., bipolar disorder).

Executive agencies must issue regulations necessary to establish these requirements for covered positions and credentials within 180 days after the bill's enactment.
