UNITED STATES, AUG 1 – Sixteen Democrat-led states and Washington, D.C. challenge federal bans on gender-affirming treatments for minors, citing constitutional violations and state protections.
- A coalition of 16 Democrat-led states and Washington, D.C., sued Friday in Boston to challenge Trump’s Jan. 28 order and DOJ memos targeting gender-affirming care for minors.
- Before the lawsuit, Illinois and other states highlighted that the ‘Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation’ order and an April memo from AG Pam Bondi directed DOJ investigations into gender-affirming care for minors.
- Amid escalating enforcement, Illinois and other states sue the Trump administration over transgender treatment bans for minors, citing overreach and violation of rights.
- The attorneys general argue the actions are attempting to intimidate providers into ceasing care, creating an atmosphere of fear for transgender individuals, families, and caregivers in some states.
- The lawsuit contends the actions violate the Constitution and exceed federal authority, undermining state laws requiring equal access to medical treatment.
