Georgia can resume ban on hormone therapy for transgender youth pending rehearing of Alabama case
- A federal judge allowed Georgia to resume enforcing its ban on hormone therapy for transgender minors.
- This came after an appeals court allowed Alabama to enforce a similar law.
- Georgia's law prohibits new patients under 18 from starting hormone therapy or getting gender-affirming surgery.
- The judge issued a stay on her injunction against Georgia's law in anticipation of a rehearing in the Alabama case.
- Over 20 states have passed laws restricting gender-affirming care for minors, leading to lawsuits.
