NYU Shuts Down Youth Gender Clinic Amid Pressure
Liberty Check
- NYU Langone cited the departure of its medical director and regulatory shifts as reasons for the closure.
- The hospital faced a stark choice between serving a small group of minors or maintaining over $600 million in annual federal grants.
- Hospitals nationwide, under proposed rules tying Medicare and Medicaid funding to ceasing “sex-rejecting procedures” for minors, are retreating from youth gender programs.
NYU Langone Health has closed its Transgender Youth Health Program.
The closure cuts off hormone therapies, puberty blockers, and surgeries for minors due to new federal scrutiny.
This move follows direct pressure from the Trump administration.
The administration threatened to revoke federal funding for hospitals providing such services to children under 18.
Decisions about children’s medical care should remain in the hands of parents and doctors, not dictated by political agendas or federal overreach.
Stand up for constitutional rights and demand accountability from institutions and lawmakers alike.
The Constitution must be defended.
