Protesters against a South Dakota House bill that prohibits puberty blocking therapies and gender altering surgeries for minors under 18 greeted seven lawmakers who participated in a legislative coffee Saturday.

Still, three Democratic lawmakers used their final 90 seconds each to address the issue.
