Sources
Verification note. Party figures only (Republicans 29% in favor, Democrats 70%) read from Newsweek's report on the NORC/Los Angeles Times survey, retrieved in session. MISSING: the Total row, exact field dates, sample size, mode and the fielded stem. Included because the framing - support for state laws that PROTECT access - is the mirror image of every ban item in this file and is rare in the corpus.
Figures below are transcribed from these documents. Where they disagree with the source, the source governs.
minors; PROTECTIVE-LAW framing - support for state laws that protect access to gender-affirming care, rather than laws that ban it
[Are you in favor of] state laws that protect access to gender-affirming care for minors
Wording reconstructed from: Newsweek's description of the NORC/Los Angeles Times survey, June 7, 2024; no topline located.
Wording notes: PROTECTIVE framing (favor = permit) - the reverse polarity of nearly every other item in this file | umbrella term, no treatment named | state-law scope | no age threshold beyond 'minors'
neutral — The Republican figure is the interesting one: 29% of Republicans affirmatively favour laws protecting minors' access, against roughly 10-20% of Republicans who oppose bans in ban-framed items from the same period. Some of that gap is polarity - it is easier to endorse a protection than to oppose a prohibition - which is exactly the asymmetry this file exists to document.
