VICTORY: Children Can No Longer Be Given Sex Change Hormones and Puberty Blockers in Kentucky
Sex change drugs and hormones for minors are now banned in Kentucky.
A federal judge had placed an injunction on the law last month due to a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union and the National Center for Lesbian Rights, but he lifted it on Friday.
U.S. District Judge David Hale’s ruling means that the law is now in effect, and minors can no longer be prescribed puberty blockers or hormones.
Republican Attorney General Daniel Cameron applauded the decision in a statement.
“Today’s ruling is a win for parents and children. I’m grateful to the district court for doing what the law requires, which is protecting Kentucky kids from the irreversible harms that these experimental drug treatments would cause,” said Attorney General Cameron.
