A federal appeals court on Tuesday allowed Indiana’s ban on gender-affirming care to go into effect, removing a temporary injunction a judge issued last year.

The ruling was handed down by a panel of justices on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago. It marked the latest decision in a legal challenge the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana filed against the ban, enacted last spring amid a national push by GOP-led legislatures to curb LGBTQ+ rights.

    “cannot possibly” is your opinion, it’s just not a fact. Look at how hard they’re trying to ban it, it clearly matters a lot to some ppl for some reason

      No you’re right, I’m actually incredibly affected by people having the immutable characteristic of… what’s your eye color again? Is it simply politics to decide that you don’t get health care because your eyes are creepy and I don’t want them around my kid?

      Trans people are strongly negatively affected by not being able to transition, more so than the people against trans rights are by them transition. This is very easily determined by looking at suicide rates pre and post transition for the trans and terrified of trans groups.

      It’s not politics to try and get rid of a group of people for being something they didn’t choose to be.
