Families and doctors sue over Trump's order to halt funding for gender-affirming care President Donald Trump's effort to ban federal funding for gender-affirming care for young people is facing a legal challenge.

Breaking news: Lambda Legal and ACLU are suing on behalf of PFLAG and GLMA to end Trump's illegal executive order banning trans care under 19 years old.

The suit has been brought in Maryland.

A similar suit was brought on behalf of PFLAG to end child abuse investigations in TX 3 years ago.

I keep trying to make this point, but you don't have to be the type to wear a solidarity keffiyeh to have looked at the last year of news and wonder "why does biden keep promising peace and not delivering" those lies were heard by everybody!

Salmon return to lay eggs in historic habitat after largest dam removal project in US history Less than a month after four towering dams on the Klamath River were demolished, hundreds of salmon made it into waters they have been cut off from for decades to spawn in cool creeks.

“Our salmon are coming home. Klamath Basin tribes fought for decades to make this day a reality because our future generations deserve to inherit a healthier river from the headwaters to the sea.”
