"As OAG Opinion No. KP-0401 makes clear, it is already against the law to subject Texas children to
a wide variety of elective procedures for gender transitioning, including reassignment surgeries that
can cause sterilization, mastectomies, removals of otherwise healthy body parts, and administration
of puberty-blocking drugs or supraphysiologic doses of testosterone or estrogen."
Where "subject" appears to be the most general form possible, as far as I can tell from context.
Even puberty blockers are on this list! You're not supporting a gender transition if you can't touch hormones at all.

Wow, finally a law against infant male circumcision!
In Texas, of all places; whodathunkit.
2. It was a clarification of existing rules
3. It does not make "supporting your child's gender transition" a jailable offense.
The order says subjecting a child to invasive medical procedure can be abuse, and that doctors and teachers have a legal requirement to report abuse.
Here is the order for your reading pleasure:
