Trump administration must restore health articles scrubbed for transgender mentions, judge rules
- On Friday, a federal judge in Massachusetts issued an injunction requiring the Trump administration to reinstate medical articles that had been removed from a government website.
- The articles were removed to comply with a January executive order that barred government recognition of gender identities beyond male and female and sought to eliminate content promoting gender ideology.
- The two Harvard Medical School doctors who authored the articles sued the administration, arguing that the removal violated their First Amendment rights and constituted viewpoint discrimination violating federal law.
- Judge Sorokin found the removal was arbitrary and capricious, a textbook example of viewpoint discrimination, and required restoration of the articles within seven days to prevent irreparable harm.
- The ruling marks another judicial check on the administration’s policies, reinforcing protections for free speech and scientific integrity on government platforms used by medical professionals.
