The Biden administration asked a judge to declare that a Tennessee law targeting gender-affirming care for transgender kids violates the U.S. Constitution.
"The law thus discriminates against transgender minors by unjustifiably denying them access to certain forms of medically necessary care to treat a diagnosis of gender dysphoria," the Justice Department lawyers wrote in a court filing.
The law forces doctors to choose between withholding necessary medical care for transgender kids or facing a $25,000 penalty from the state, according to the Justice Department. More than 300,000 high-school-age kids are transgender and may need gender-affirming care, according to the organization.
