Texas Children’s Hospital Opens Detransition Clinic After $10 Million Paxton Settlement

The settlement requires Texas Children’s to fund the clinic for five years and pay $10 million to the state.

  • On Tuesday, Texas Children's Hospital opened the Detransition Clinic, fulfilling a settlement requirement from a lawsuit filed by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
  • Paxton, a Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate, bragged that it was "my settlement," pledging to ensure the facility supports victims of "the radical left's gender ideology."
  • Funding the facility for five years at no cost to patients, the clinic offers medical care through age 21, with gynecologic services for older patients.
  • Surveys like the Transgender Survey show between 8 and 13 percent of transgender people have detransitioned, with 62 percent detransitioning only temporarily due to social pressure or discrimination.
  • Critics note Paxton has ignored other threats to children: 5,280 died by gun violence in Texas since Jan. 5, 2025, while the Annie Casey Foundation reports at least 627,927 children faced sexual abuse.
