A Texas judge has temporarily blocked the state from investigating parents who get gender affirming health care for their kids.
A judge in Texas has temporarily blocked the state from investigating parents who obtain gender-affirming medical care for their transgender children. Last month, Governor Greg Abbott signed an order directing the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services and other state agencies to open the investigations, calling such treatments"child abuse."
Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton issued a legal opinion last month — just before Abbott announced his order — that said gender affirming"procedures and treatments, when performed on children, can legally constitute child abuse." "I was in the fetal position on the floor, gripping the floor, cause the room wouldn't stop spinning," Amber Briggle said.
