A federal judge on Thursday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump's recent executive order aimed at restricting gender-affirming healthcare for transgender people under age 19. The judge's ruling came after a lawsuit was filed earlier this month on behalf of families with transgender or nonbinary children who allege their healthcare has already been compromised by the president's order.

A second federal judge on Friday paused President Donald Trump’s executive order halting federal support for gender-affirming care for transgender youth under 19.

It means medical institutions can’t have their federal funding pulled because they provide gender-affirming care services.
