Texas Judge Temporarily Blocks AG's Investigation of LGBTQ+ Advocacy Group
TL;DR
A Texas judge has temporarily blocked the state's Attorney General from demanding information from PFLAG, a nonprofit supporting LGBTQ+ families, including those with transgender minors seeking gender-affirming care. The injunction prevents the release of private information and documents to the Attorney General's office, which had sought to investigate medical providers offering gender-affirming care to minors despite a state ban. The legal win for PFLAG comes amid ongoing efforts in Texas to restrict access to transition-related care for minors.
