Trump signs executive order restricting gender care for young people

President Donald Trump signed an executive order to cut federal support for gender transitions for individuals under 19 years old, stating that the U.S. Will not fund such procedures.
The order directs federally-run insurance programs to exclude coverage for gender-affirming care and calls for legal action against the practice.
Major medical groups, like the American Medical Association, support access to gender-affirming care, while Trump's order uses controversial language against it.
The American Civil Liberties Union is reviewing the order, which could face legal challenges, as it aims to limit transgender individuals' access to necessary healthcare.
