The ACLU sues Texas governor over state-sponsored persecution of trans youth.
on behalf of an anonymous Texas family with an adolescent trans daughter and a Houston-based clinical psychologist who has worked with many transgender patients. The lawsuit claims Gov. Abbott’s actions, as well as those of the DFPS and its commissioner, Jaime Masters, violate Texas procedural law and equality and due process protections afforded by the Texas constitution.
The key plaintiffs in the suit are one such family that’s already facing the brunt of Abbott’s directive. Identified as the Doe Family, the suit states that John and Jane’s 16-year-old daughter, Mary, was diagnosed with gender dysphoria and has received care such as puberty-delaying medication and hormone therapy.
