Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump's restrictions on youth gender-affirming care
Briefly

On February 13, a federal judge temporarily halted enforcement of President Trump's executive orders aimed at banning gender-affirming care for those under 19. Judge Brendan Hurson ruled that the Health and Human Services Department could not withhold federal funding based on whether healthcare providers offer such care. The ruling came in response to legal action from trans youth, families, and civil rights organizations like the ACLU, ensuring that funds previously paused must be released and navigating a climate of legal protections for trans rights.
In this situation, it is clear that these plaintiffs have received phone calls stopping their care, stopping their appointments, stopping their everything.
