Trump Administration Provided Gender-Affirming Care, Including Hormone Therapy, in Prisons: NYT
Oct 16, 2024, 05:59 PM
During Donald Trump's presidency, the U.S. Bureau of Prisons provided gender-affirming treatments, including hormone therapy, to a small group of inmates who requested it. This policy is notable given Trump's current campaign ads, which contrast his stance with that of Kamala Harris. The New York Times reported that Trump appointees at the Bureau of Prisons provided an array of gender-affirming care. The Trump administration's approach did not include surgeries, which first took place in 2022 under the Biden-Harris administration. Kamala Harris has long supported taxpayer-funded surgeries for transgender prisoners and immigration detainees, a stance she continues to defend.
