Happening in NYC: In a letter released yesterday, New York Attorney General Letitia James told health care providers that refusing gender-affirming care to patients could constitute a violation of state anti-discrimination laws. Last week, in response to an executive order threatening to withhold federal funding from organizations that offer gender-affirming care, NYU Lagone Health began cancelling gender-affirming care appointments for children under 19. James’ letter specifies that the withdrawal of federal funding is not a legal justification for refusing to provide trans people with services which are offered to other patients. (Gothamist)
