Federal judge sides with Republican AGs & ends Biden-era health care discrimination protections - LGBTQ Nation

The Biden administration's interpretation of sex-based discrimination protections to include sexual orientation and gender identity in the list of protected characteristics in certain health programs and activities under the Affordable Healthcare Act (Obamacare) caused outcry on the right when implemented in 2024, causing them to sue so that health care providers wouldn't be obligated to treat LGBTQ+ people equally. In his ruling, the judge explicitly states that discrimination against people based on their gender identity is now legal.
