US Federal Employees Challenge Ban on Gender-Affirming Care
A legal complaint has been filed against the Trump administration on behalf of government employees. The complaint, spearheaded by the Human Rights Campaign, challenges a new policy eliminating coverage for gender-affirming care in federal health insurance programs. The plaintiffs argue the policy constitutes sex-based discrimination and seek its rescission, citing personal testimonies of affected federal workers and their families. This action follows the administration’s broader efforts to restrict transgender care, including proposed limitations on care for minors, despite medical consensus supporting gender-affirming treatment.
