AUSTIN, Texas — Three more families with transgender children are suing to block abuse investigations the state has opened against them, adding to the litigation Texas faces after deeming certain gender-affirming medical treatments child abuse earlier this year.
The lawsuit, filed Wednesday in Travis County, asks the court to block these investigations and any others into families with transgender children who are members of the LGBTQ advocacy group PFLAG.
Adam and Amber Briggle, who have a transgender son and have been one of the few families to publicly comment on the investigation into their family, are parties to the suit, as are Mirabel Voe and Wanda Roe, parents of two other transgender minors.
