According to a release from Harris County District Attorney Christian Menefee, the information was released to an individual not affiliated with the hospital.
Attorney Christian Menefee is calling for swift and appropriate action in response to children's medical records from Texas Children's Hospital being illicit released.
Menefee said the records were published by The Manhattan Institute, a conservative think tank, and relate to children receiving gender-affirming care. "This illicit release of medical records puts children and their families at risk, and swift action must be taken to ensure that this does not happen again.
The Attorney General has used this violation of the personal information of minors to launch a legally baseless investigation, erroneously claiming that providing gender-affirming care violates Texas law. He is wrong. If providing this type of care for children were currently illegal, we wouldn’t see Republican legislators spending all their waking hours trying to pass SB14, which bans gender-affirming care.
