United States of America v. Skrmetti

September 03, 2024

"This brief first provides background on gender identity and gender dysphoria. It then describes the professionally accepted medical guidelines for treating gender dysphoria as they apply to adolescents, the scientifically rigorous process by which these guidelines were developed, and the evidence that supports the effectiveness of this care for adolescents with gender dysphoria. Finally, the brief explains how the Healthcare Ban irreparably harms adolescents with gender dysphoria by denying crucial care to those who need it."
