Gov. Abbott sent a letter to the DFPS, directing the agency to investigate reports of gender-affirming care as child abuse. The ACLU says the letter has no legal effect.
The staff attorney at their Texas chapter, Brian Klosterboer, said both are non-binding and that no court in Texas has ever found that gender-affirming health care could constitute child abuse. He said the only state to have done so is Arkansas, but the law was blocked after a lawsuit brought forth by the ACLU.
Doe worries for other transgender youth, who may not have a loving and supportive environment at home like her daughter. She declined to comment on her daughter's medical information. But she said that children under the age of 11 typically don't receive any gender-affirming care, other than therapy. Klosterboer and Doe disagree. They believe this is a political move by Abbott a week before the primaries.
