Winning Continues: Missouri Judge Issues Landmark Decision Against ‘Transgender’ Surgery For Kids


Missouri’s Judge Carter just gave the state’s transgender care ban a big legal high-five.

The law not only blocks new treatments for minors but also raises the threat of lawsuits and revoked medical licenses of doctors that don’t comply.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), being a cog in the Marxist regime, naturally vowed to fight this.

Someone needs to bring this group up to President Donald Trump.

Their anti-American and subversive ways can not be allowed to continue.

Another win to keep our kids safe!

Red State reports:

Cole County, Missouri Circuit Court Judge R. Craig Carter has upheld Missouri’s ban on transgender treatments for minors. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has already vowed to appeal.

Judge R. Craig Carter ruled that the lawsuit brought by transgender children and their parents did not meet any of the criteria required to block the enforcement of a 2023 law on transgender care.

During the 13-day trial earlier this year, the state argued that there was no medical consensus on the efficacy of medical transition.

In his ruling, Judge Carter sided with the state’s argument. He cited a 2007 Supreme Court ruling that said legislative options “must be epically broad” when involving areas “fraught with medical and scientific uncertainties.”

The law prohibits both medical (hormone) transgender treatments and transgender surgeries for minors, which have permanent and often (if not always) effects that include sterilization.

The law, signed by Republican Gov. Mike Parson in June of 2023, prohibits Missouri health care providers from providing puberty blockers, hormones and gender-affirming surgeries to minors. Minors prescribed puberty blockers or hormones before Aug. 28, 2023, would be able to continue to receive those treatments.

In addition to limiting access to treatment, the law also increased potential punishments for physicians who violate the law. Doctors could have their licenses revoked and could be sued by patients. The law makes gives patients 15 years to sure and guaranteed $500,000 in damages if they succeed in court.

Just a reminder about the ACLU:
