US Judge Blocks Florida's Ban on Transgender Care for Minors.
TL;DR Summary
A federal judge has temporarily blocked portions of a new Florida law that bans transgender minors from receiving puberty blockers, ruling that the state has no rational basis for denying patients treatment. The lawsuit challenges the law Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis signed shortly before he announced a run for president. The ruling was narrowly focused on the three children whose parents brought the suit. Transgender medical treatment for minors is increasingly under attack in many states and has been subject to restrictions or outright bans.
