Executive Order 14187, titled "Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation", is an executive order issued by Donald Trump on January 28, 2025. Part of a broader targeting of transgender people, the order acts to prevent gender-affirming care for Americans under 19 years old by withholding federal funding and directing agencies to take a variety of steps to prevent surgeries, hormone therapy, the use of puberty blockers, and other gender-affirming treatments. In response, some hospitals paused providing gender-affirming care for minors, while others continued. Attorneys general from 15 states said their states are committed to continuing to provide gender-affirming care to minors. Multiple groups filed lawsuits challenging the legality of the executive order. In response to one of the lawsuits, several federal judges issued injunctions blocking the government from withholding federal funds from hospitals that provide gender-affirming care to minors. Following the injunctions, some hospitals that initially paused gender-affirming care for minors resumed the care.
