Federal Judges Block Kentucky and Tennessee's Transgender Youth Care Bans
A federal judge has temporarily blocked a Kentucky state law that would ban the prescription and administration of puberty blockers and hormone therapy for transgender individuals under 18. The judge ruled that the plaintiffs were likely to succeed in their challenge to the law on constitutional grounds. The law, known as Senate Bill 150, also includes restrictions on school policies and bathroom usage for transgender students. This ruling is part of a larger wave of laws targeting transgender rights across the United States.
