Federal Judge Rules Against Transgender Protection

Judge Reed O'Connor from Texas ruled against the transgender mandate under the Affordable Care Act, citing violations of First Amendment religious protections and the Administrative Procedure Act. The mandate aimed to prevent discrimination based on gender identity. This decision follows a 2016 case where Christian healthcare providers challenged the mandate. The Trump administration has since opposed the mandate, and the ruling is expected to be appealed.
