"Federal Court Upholds Indiana's Ban on Gender-Affirming Care for Minors"
TL;DR
A federal appeals court has ruled that Indiana can enforce a law banning minors from seeking gender-transitioning treatments, overturning a temporary injunction issued last year. The law, signed by Gov. Eric Holcomb, prohibits minors from accessing hormone therapies and puberty blockers, and prohibits Indiana doctors from communicating with out-of-state doctors about transgender-related treatments for minors. The ACLU of Indiana, which filed a lawsuit against the ban, expressed disappointment, while the state's Attorney General praised the decision. Similar laws exist in 22 other states, with legal challenges ongoing in some.
