A federal judge in Oregon ruled Thursday that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. overstepped his authority when he publicly disparaged gender-affirming care for minors and chastised medical professionals for providing it.

The ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Mustafa Kasubhai is the latest loss on the issue for the Trump administration and offers a reprieve to clinics, hospitals and other medical outlets who treat children with gender dysphoria, a medical condition in which a person experiences a distressing disconnect around their gender.

Kasubhai found that Kennedy had violated accepted procedures by publishing a document in December 2025, in which he declared that gender-affirming care for minors was neither "safe nor effective" and that those who offer it were threatening "the health and safety of children with gender dysphoria."

The decision came in a lawsuit 18 states including California and New York filed against Kennedy and the Trump administration, arguing that the declaration was an overstep of Kennedy's rule-making power and improperly threatened federal funding for clinics and others that provide gender-related care.

Blue states have taken the Trump administration to court several times over the administration's attempts to stop hospitals from providing gender-affirming care to minors. In January, several states filed a lawsuit over an administration policy to cut health and education grants from institutions that promote "gender ideology." In February 2025, a judge blocked enforcement of President Donald Trump's executive order threatening federal funding from hospitals that provide gender affirming care to teenagers.

Another bit of positive news Jessica. I like that legal challenges are starting to come in. Nothing of the sort in the UK as far as I can see unfortunately.

Thanks again.
