Federal Judge in Oregon Rules Against HHS on Gender-Affirming Care
A federal judge in Oregon has ruled that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services overstepped its authority by declaring puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and surgeries unsafe and ineffective for youth with gender dysphoria. The judge found that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior failed to follow required administrative steps when issuing the warning last December. This ruling grants early relief to healthcare providers and families, allowing them to continue care without federal intimidation. It also marks the second major court loss for Kennedy and his department this week, following a Boston judges pause of several vaccine policy shifts for similar procedural flaws. Major medical organizations continue to support gender-affirming care, despite criticisms of the departments underlying report.
