Judge Allows Gender-Affirming Care Ban to Go Into Effect in Missouri
0
On Friday, a St. Louis judge denied a preliminary injunction in a lawsuit, brought by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and Lambda Legal, seeking to block Missouri’s ban on gender-affirming care. As of Monday, transgender youth in the state will no longer have access to gender-affirming care and transgender people who are incarcerated or on Medicaid will be forced to medically detransition.
