In a recent legal action that has once again propelled the state of Texas into the national spotlight over the treatment of transgender youth, Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against an El Paso doctor accused of providing puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to minors. Paxton’s move comes after Senate Bill 14, a state law banning such medical interventions in the case of minors, went into effect. Illegal as deemed by this law, some of the patients involved were as young as twelve, as reported by the Texas Attorney General’s Office.
