Trump administration asks supreme court to block gender-affirming care for trans prisoners
The Trump administration has asked the US Supreme Court to block gender-affirming care for transgender prisoners, escalating its legal campaign against such treatment. The request goes directly to the nation's highest court and concerns inmates' access to hormone therapy and related medical care while incarcerated. Civil rights groups are expected to oppose the move, arguing it violates constitutional protections against cruel and unusual punishment.
Why now: The administration's emergency appeal to the Supreme Court is a new and consequential step in the fight over transgender healthcare rights.
