🌹 awesome! Thank you Erin and S.Baum!

Fantastic news! It's great that they're bringing it back, but the harm they caused and the trust they broke will take years to heal. My health system stopped youth GAC as well, and I will never let them forget how they betrayed our community. Am I thrilled with this? Yes. Am I willing to forgive and forget? Nope.

I applaud Judge Kasubhai for his decision vacating the federal government’s attempt to restrict gender-affirming care and allowing services for transgender youth to continue — at least for now. This ruling recognizes what medical experts, families, and transgender young people have been saying all along: access to medically necessary care should never be dictated by politics or ideology.

While this decision brings much-needed relief and hope, we must also be realistic. If this case moves forward — as it almost certainly will — an appeal is inevitable, and the path likely leads to the Supreme Court. Given the Court’s recent trajectory, there is real concern that it may ultimately side with the Trump administration, risking another devastating setback for transgender rights and healthcare access.

Today is a victory and a reprieve worth celebrating. But it is also a reminder that the fight is far from over. The rights, dignity, and health of transgender youth remain on the line, and continued advocacy, vigilance, and solidarity are more important than ever.

A childrens hospital looking after Children's needs. Perfect.

Children's Minnesota should have never suspended care in the first place, but it is good to see that affected families will be able to resume their care that should have continued uninterrupted.

Hopefully Judge Kasubhai rules on the side of common sense and decency against the Trump regime from further threatening healthcare providers.
