Trump admin demands medical organizations explain why they support for trans care According to an October 14 press release, HHS sent letters to the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), the American Medical Association, American Psychiatric Association, American Psychological Association, Endocrine Society, and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Each letter demands “a clear, current statement” on the organizations’ position on what HHS characterizes as “sex-rejecting procedures” for minors; identification of updates, revisions, or corrections to their positions, guidance, or educational content; and a timeline for any forthcoming changes the organizations plan to make to their positions. The letters note that HHS sent similar requests to each organization late last year, but has not yet received a response from any of them.
