Federal judge blocks Florida's ban on gender-affirming care for three trans youths
Judge Robert Hinkle in Florida granted a preliminary injunction, permitting a trio of transgender children to receive puberty blockers, or GnRH agonists.
“The elephant in the room should be noted at the outset," Hinkle wrote. "Gender identity is real. The record makes it clear.” Judge Robert Hinkle on Tuesday said the three youths, who are children of the plaintiffs in the case, may receive GnRH agonists, known as puberty blockers. This suit challenges legislation in Florida that bans gender-affirming care for minors, which Gov. Ron DeSantis signed into law in May.
"The elephant in the room should be noted at the outset," Hinkle wrote in his decision. "Gender identity is real. The record makes it clear."
