Overview
U.S. District Judge Brendan Hurson has temporarily blocked President Trump’s executive order limiting gender-affirming care for individuals under 19. Families of transgender youth launched the lawsuit after facing canceled healthcare appointments due to the order. The ruling marks a significant challenge to Trump's directives reversing protections for LGBTQ+ individuals instituted by the Biden administration. Major medical groups support gender-affirming care, arguing for its importance to mental health and well-being. The reassessment of hospital practices is prompted by the ruling, which addresses constitutional concerns about discriminatory policies.
