Multiple families sued the Trump administration on Feb. 4 over an executive order barring federal support for transgender surgeries for children and teenagers under the age of 19 nationwide.

The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court of the District of Maryland by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Lambda Legal, the ACLU of Maryland, and lawyers working on behalf of two young adults who identify as transgender and five adolescents who similarly identify and their families.
