Missouri AG withdraws limits on transgender health care for minors and adults.

TL;DR Summary
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has withdrawn his emergency rule on gender-affirming care, which would have set barriers to accessing puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and gender-affirming surgery for adults. The ACLU of Missouri filed a lawsuit in April to block the rule, and a judge put it on hold until July. Bailey did not state the reasoning for revoking the order, but if he wishes to enact it, he must restart the process. The now-terminated emergency order would have affected adults, causing fear in the LGBTQ+ community.
