  2. # Judge rules Arkansas ban on gender-affirming care for transgender minors violates US Constitution

    *
    #Arkansas was the first state to enact a #ban on #GenderAffirmingCare for #minors.
    * The
    #law was #temporarily #blocked in 2021, and on Tuesday, a #federal #judge #issued a #permanent #injunction against it.
    * The judge
    #ruled that the #ban #violated the #DueProcess and #EqualProtection #rights of #transgender #youth and families.
    * The law also violated the
    #FirstAmendment rights of medical providers.
    * This is the first ruling to overturn such a prohibition, and it is likely to have a significant impact on the legal challenges to similar bans in other states.
