Federal appeals court allows Florida to enforce ban on gender-affirming care for minors
Manage episode 436492025 series 3245582
A federal appeals court has cleared the way for Florida to enforce a ban on gender-affirming care for minors. The law prohibits transgender minors from being prescribed puberty blockers and hormonal treatments, even with their parents’ permission. It also requires that transgender adults only receive treatment from a doctor and not from a registered nurse or other qualified medical practitioner.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has dismissed gender-affirming care as a "fad" and part of a "radical, new age 'gender ideology.'"
A coalition of LGBTQ legal groups says in a statement that the ruling will "deny transgender adults and adolescents lifesaving care, and prevent Florida parents from making medical decisions that are right for their children."
