A federal judge has issued a temporary restraining order against President Trump’s executive order that aimed to restrict gender-affirming health care for transgender individuals under 19. This judicial decision follows a lawsuit from families of transgender youth, and it highlights concerns regarding potential healthcare disruptions caused by the order. The judge emphasized that Trump’s directive diminishes the existence of this demographic. The attorneys argue the order is both unlawful and unconstitutional, infringing on parents' rights and violating anti-discrimination laws since it restricts federally funded healthcare typically provided.
Trump's executive order seems to deny that this population even exists, or deserves to exist, Hurson said.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs argue Trump's executive order is unlawful and unconstitutional because it seeks to withhold federal funds previously authorized by Congress.
