A federal judge has granted an Alabama conservative nonprofit’s motion to quash a U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) subpoena that demanded all information related to the nonprofit’s efforts to promote a bill prohibiting puberty blockers and gender-reassignment surgery on people under 19 years of age.

The Eagle Forum of Alabama filed the motion in U.S. federal district court seeking to quash the DOJ’s Aug. 9 subpoena in September.
