Florida's Transgender Community Faces Multiple Attacks from DeSantis Administration.
TL;DR Summary
Parents of three transgender children in Florida are seeking a federal judge to block a new law that bans gender-affirming care for minors, a signature policy of Republican governor Ron DeSantis. The law prohibits the prescription of puberty-blocking and other hormone-related therapies to treat gender dysphoria in minors and also bans gender-affirming medical procedures or surgeries for minors. At least 17 states have now enacted laws restricting or banning gender-affirming medical care for transgender minors.
