LGBTQ Group Sues Texas AG Over Records Request for Trans Youth

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton faces a lawsuit from LGBTQ group PFLAG after demanding records related to support for transgender youths' medical care, with PFLAG calling it an overreach and retaliation. The group alleges that Paxton's demand violates their rights and aims to persecute Texas trans youth and their parents. This comes amid ongoing efforts by state officials to restrict access to transition-related care for minors, including investigations into families and a new rule restricting gender-affirming care for adults on Medicaid.
