Supreme Court temporarily revives Idaho law banning gender affirming care for minors

Quick Glance: Idaho Can Enforce Ban on Gender-Affirming Care

The Supreme Court is allowing Idaho to enforce its ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth while ongoing legal battles persist, overturning previous court decisions.

A court decision enables the state of Idaho to implement a 2023 law that imposes significant penalties on physicians for providing gender-affirming care to individuals under 18 years old.

The court's three liberal judges would have chosen to suspend the law.

This action comes as the justices may soon deliberate on whether to address bans in Kentucky and Tennessee enforced amid legal disputes.

AG Ken Paxton won't get Seattle hospital records on transgender youth: The hospital had sued Texas over the request, calling it part of a “sham” investigation ...

houstonchronicle.com/politics/texas/article/ken-paxton-transgender-seattle-hospital-19417933.php

Quick Glance: Seattle Children’s to Exit Texas Due to Gender-Affirming Care

Seattle Children’s Hospital will forego its ability to do business in Texas as part of an agreement with the state’s Attorney General to stop inquiries into gender-affirming care for Texas patients.

Last year, Attorney General Ken Paxton attempted to compel Seattle Children’s to turn over information about gender-affirming care that Texas patients may have received at the facility. The hospital sued Paxton, stating that the office doesn’t have jurisdiction over patient records in Washington.

Seattle Children’s will 'voluntarily withdraw its registration to transact business in the State of Texas' by the end of the week. Paxton’s office will rescind its civil investigative demand and its request for a sworn written declaration served to the hospital in November.

Paxton also requested information on patients from Texas who received gender-affirming care services at the Seattle hospital, including diagnoses details, prescribed medications, and other treatment protocols. Additionally, his office asked for similar records from a telehealth clinic in Georgia.

Quick Glance: White House Responds to 'Dishonest' Republican Criticism of Biden's Transgender Proclamation on Easter

The White House is pushing back against misleading criticism from top Republicans of President Joe Biden for issuing a proclamation in support of transgender people on Easter.

A spokesman for the president rejected attacks from the House speaker and others claiming Biden's message for the Transgender Day of Visibility contradicts Christianity.

Biden has issued a proclamation marking March 31 as the Transgender Day of Visibility every year since taking office in 2021.

Biden allies are also challenging the attacks and highlighting that the criticism this Easter weekend also involves an egg art contest for the annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House.

Ohio's latest legislation prohibits gender-affirming surgeries and hormone therapies, along with mental health care for transgender individuals under 18.

Additionally, transgender girls and women are barred from participating in girls' and women's sports teams at K-12 and collegiate levels.

Governor DeWine has issued an executive order banning gender-affirming surgeries for individuals under 18, despite medical professionals stating there's no such surgeries taking place in the state.

Currently, at least 23 states have enacted laws restricting or prohibiting gender-affirming medical care for transgender minors, resulting in numerous legal challenges.
