Judge Blocks Trump Order That Would've Stopped 'Transition' Funding for Gender-Confused Inmates

On his first day back in the White House this year, President Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing that "Federal funds shall not be used to promote gender ideology. Each agency shall assess grant conditions and grantee preferences and ensure grant funds do not promote gender ideology." It also directed the heads of the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security to "ensure that males are not detained in women's prisons or housed in women's detention centers" under their jurisdiction.

But the Daily Wire reported that the ACLU sued on behalf of 1,000 inmates who stand to lose cross-sex clothes, hormones, and more under the order, and the judge agreed.

"In light of the plaintiffs' largely personal motives for undergoing gender-affirming care, neither the BOP nor the Executive Order provides any serious explanation as to why the treatment modalities covered by the Executive Order or implementing memoranda should be handled differently than any other mental health intervention," Lamberth wrote. "(N)othing in the thin record before the Court suggests that either the BOP or the President consciously took stock of —much less studied—the potentially debilitating effects that the new policies could have on transgender inmates before the implementing memoranda came into force."

In response, the White House confirmed plans to appeal the ruling, saying it "fundamentally makes women less safe and ignores the biological truth that there are only two genders. The Trump administration looks forward to ultimate victory on this issue in court."... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
