The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and four states sued the World Professional Association for Transgender Health Wednesday, in the latest push by President Donald Trump's administration and others to limit gender-affirming care for transgender minors.
The suit alleges the group, known widely as WPATH, made deceptive claims about gender-affirming care for minors and that its members profited off the claims. Alaska, Iowa, Nebraska, and Texas filed along with the FTC.
