"The forthcoming report is expected to mirror Florida and the UK's reviews, engineered to undermine evidence supporting gender-affirming care and threaten access for transgender Americans."
"The fact sheet indicates that HHS will produce a report declaring gender-affirming care 'not supported' by evidence, despite existing peer-reviewed studies showing positive outcomes."
The White House plans to release a report that will declare gender-affirming care "not supported" by evidence, despite research showing its benefits. This report is part of a broader agenda against transgender rights, echoing similar reviews in Florida and the UK that excluded expert opinions in favor of pre-determined conclusions. Investigations into hormone replacement therapy and its providers are already underway, which could severely limit medication access for transgender Americans. This suggests a significant shift in healthcare policy regarding gender-affirming practices.
