The federal court ruling against President Donald Trump means that more Arizona children can obtain confirmed medical care for both sexes, at least.
On Thursday, the Federal Provincial Court judge issued a temporary order prohibiting the enforcement of the Trump administration’s executive enforcement that tries to close the gender medical care for sexually transformed people under the age of nineteen.
The decision means that the PRISMA community in Phoenix (previously the southwestern HIV/AIDS center) will resume all of its gender care, including hormonal drugs, for its young patients, according to a written statement issued by the clinic on Friday.
In Phoenix, Prisma Community Care and Phoenix Children’s Hospital previously confirmed that they stopped hormonal drugs for sexually transformed adolescents because of Trump’s executive order. PRISMA community care officials began notifying her patients to stop during the February 3 week.
They are “comfortable” to raise the comment on the care of patients under the age of 19 because of Trump’s discriminatory executive order. The executive on January 28 says that the United States will not finance, sponsor, promote, help, help or support “the so -called transition to a child from one sex to another, and will implement all the laws that prohibit these laws or limit them strictly and the procedures for changing life.”
On Friday, officials at Phenix Children’s Hospital did not explain whether they would resume care for their sexual clinic or not.
PRISMA leaders say that the court ruling was the green light to restore full care.

Trump issued an executive order for sexually transgender youth in the wake of an executive order on January 20, which also targets people whose sexual identity does not match their gender at birth. This executive declares that “the US policy is to recognize the sexes, males and females. These sexes are not changeable and are based on the basic and indisputable reality.”
While legal experts who have a non -profit national campaign for human rights, which calls for the LGBTQIA community, said that Trump’s order on January 28 should not have an impact on the ability of service providers to care for transgender children, some hospitals and other sex providers -certainly Health care, for fear of repercussions, put treatment to stop anyway.

In PRISMA, the number of children with gender care is small: less than 20 people, which represents less than 2 % of the clinic patients.
PRISMA has always referred patients who want puberty to the Phenix Children’s Hospital. The human rights campaign says that puberty is a type of medicine that can temporarily stop puberty and is vice versa.
“The children of Phoenix are obligated to all federal laws and regulations to provide care for their patients. We are in full compliance with the last executive system.
