Federal Court Upholds Indiana Ban on Puberty Blockers, Hormones for Transgender Minors in 2-1 Ruling
Nov 14, 2024, 09:30 PM
A federal appeals court has upheld an Indiana law banning the use of puberty blockers and hormones for transgender minors under the age of 18. The decision, made by the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in a 2-1 ruling, reverses a lower court decision that temporarily blocked the law. The ruling emphasizes that the law is likely constitutional and aligns with similar legislation passed in 26 other Republican-controlled states. The decision comes as the US Supreme Court prepares to hear a challenge to a similar law in Tennessee. The Indiana law also includes provisions regarding 'aiding or abetting' providers, which were upheld as likely constitutional by the court. This ruling is seen as a setback for the Biden-Harris administration's agenda.
