A Texas judge issued a temporary restraining order Friday that prohibits state child-abuse investigations into a group of families that are allowing doctors to prescribe gender-affirming medical care to their transgender adolescents.
, Senior Justice Debra Lehrmann said Texas Department of Family and Protective Services rules prohibit the department from investigating reports where the"only grounds" for the purported abuse are"facilitation or provision of gender-affirming medical treatment."
"Every member of the Texas Supreme Court has demonstrated a very intense scrutiny of the procedure sought by the Texas Attorney General," Sheppard said. "None of them seem happy with the Texas Attorney General for a variety of reasons, and those reasons have generated different opinions." Brian Bond, executive director of PFLAG National, praised Soifer for protecting the families who sued and every other Texas member of his organization.
