HHS will enforce sex discrimination protections 'according to the plain meaning of the word 'sex' as male or female and as determined by biology.' This rewrites an Obama-era regulation that sought a broader understanding shaped by one's internal sense.
WASHINGTON — In a move applauded by President Donald Trump’s conservative religious base, his administration on Friday finalized a rule that overturns Obama-era protections for transgender people against sex discrimination in health care.
But conservatives say the Obama administration exceeded its legal authority in broadly interpreting gender.Behind the dispute over legal rights is a medically recognized condition called “gender dysphoria” – discomfort or distress caused by a discrepancy between the gender that a person identifies as and the gender at birth. Consequences can include severe depression.
The ACLU says it has already moved to try to prevent the rollback of protections for transgender people.
