Judge Declares Trump Administration's Passport Policy for Transgender, Non-binary Americans Unconstitutional
Boston, MA – A U.S. District Judge in Boston has issued a preliminary injunction, ruling that the Trump administration’s policy of blocking passports for transgender and non-binary Americans is unconstitutional. This decision expands an earlier order from April, which had initially applied to a smaller group of individuals. The judge's finding asserts that the previous administration's refusal to issue passports reflecting individuals' gender identities violates constitutional principles. While the ruling is expected to face appeals, it marks a significant legal development for LGBTQ+ rights in the United States.
