"I was an attorney in NYAG's consumer frauds bureau, which did not work on anything related to PGM [pediatric gender medicine],"
"Since 2024 I'd been raising the alarm publicly and within NYAG that PGM providers may be engaged in a dangerous consumer fraud.... These attorneys struggled to explain why my public statements were problematic, apparently because they weren't engaging with the issue."
"NYAG's ethics chief warned me it was unethical to 'take public legal positions that conflict with' James's,"
"I tried to explain to NYAG officials that PGM, by its nature, targets children who defy sexed norms - whom studies show are more likely to be gay when they grow up."
A former Assistant Attorney General in New York's Consumer Frauds and Protection Bureau alleges termination after opposing gender-affirming pediatric care for trans youth. The former attorney publicly criticized Attorney General Letitia James and described being treated like a pest by colleagues. The former attorney said concerns were raised that pediatric gender medicine providers may be engaged in dangerous consumer fraud and that internal attorneys did not engage with those concerns. NYAG officials reportedly said alignment with the U.S. v. Skrmetti decision contradicted the attorney general's legal position and cited ethics restrictions. The former attorney also characterized gender-affirming care as homophobic.
