Georgia officials have asked a federal judge to allow the state to resume enforcement of its restriction on hormone therapy for transgender people under the age of 18.
“In its opinion, the Eleventh Circuit expressly addressed — and rejected — each of the core legal theories plaintiffs here advanced in support of their motion for preliminary injunction,” attorneys for Georgia said in their court filing.The Georgia law,, allows doctors to prescribe puberty-blocking medications, and it allows minors who are already receiving hormone therapy to continue.
In her ruling, Geraghty said the transgender children who sought the injunction faced “imminent risks” from the ban on starting hormone therapy, including depression, anxiety, disordered eating, self-harm, and suicidal ideation. She said those risks outweighed any harm to the state from an injunction.
