A new federal lawsuit challenges the state of Florida's effort to block gender-affirming health care for the transgender community from its state Medicaid program. The lawsuit calls the rule illegal, discriminatory, and a "dangerous governmental action." A coalition of legal groups has filed this lawsuit on behalf of four Florida Medicaid recipients, who are either transgender or parents of transgender youth and reside in the Northern District of Florida. Around 5 million Floridians which are nearly a quarter of the state's residents are depending on the state's taxpayer-funded Medicaid program.
