The Trump administration has intensified its campaign against transgender individuals by issuing a federal letter aimed at helping states revoke Medicaid coverage for gender-affirming care for minors. This new directive from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services warns that such medical treatments could violate federal rules. Critics, including former officials, argue it misuses regulations to pursue a political agenda that undermines the health and rights of transgender youth, citing a lack of evidence supporting these actions.
The letter misuses Medicaid regulations to advance a political agenda targeting trans people.
This letter is using highly politicized language that is not grounded in the mountain of evidence that supports the underlying health and well-being of trans youth.
