A federal judge has blocked the enforcement of an HHS regulation that provided so-called “discrimination protections” in health care for persons identifying as transgender.
Judge Louis Guirola Jr. of the US District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, a George W. Bush appointee, blocked the implementation of a rule extensively modifying Section 1557 of the “Affordable Care Act” to expand sex discrimination to include whatever whims a patient might have on a particular day. In his ruling, he said that HHS is “enjoined from enforcing, relying on, implementing, or otherwise acting pursuant to the May 2024 Rule’s provisions concerning gender identity,” The ruling applies to the entire country.
