Parents do not have the power to seek certain medical treatments to assist their trans children in potentially changing their gender because it's not "deeply rooted in [America's] history or traditions," argues the attorney general of Alabama, using language that echoes last week's Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade.
In this case, Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall is attempting to overturn a temporary injunction that blocks implementation of a state law (S.B 184) that bans and criminalizes treating trans children with puberty blockers, hormones, or surgeries for the purpose of "transitioning" the child to the opposite sex.
