Judge Blocks Trump’s Order Restricting Youth Gender-Affirming Care

A federal judge in Seattle blocked the Trump administration's effort to cut federal funds for hospitals providing gender-transition treatment for individuals under 19, stating the action likely violates constitutional rights.
The injunction affects medical providers in Washington, Oregon, Minnesota, and Colorado, maintaining their ability to provide gender-affirming treatment despite efforts to limit such care by the Trump administration.
Judge Lauren J. King recognized that transgender youth denied gender-affirming treatments could face 'dire harms', reaffirming the structural integrity of constitutional rights.
Judge King ruled that the states and doctors suing are likely to prevail, which requires the government to face significant legal challenges.
