A federal judge partially blocked a law banning transgender healthcare for minors in Georgia. The ruling says the ban on medical professionals providing patients with hormone therapy is likely unconstitutional.

Also in Georgia, the Cobb County School Board in Atlanta voted last week to fire a longtime teacher who read the book “My Shadow Is Purple,” which is about gender fluidity and inclusiveness, to her fifth-grade students. The ACLU says 230 anti-LGBTQIA education laws have been advanced across the country in the 2023 legislative session.
