“US District Judge John D. Bates has ordered the Center for Disease Control and Food and Drug Administration to restore the web pages and resources they had previously removed to comply with President Trump’s executive order related to gender ideology. Bates gave the agencies until February 11, 11:59 PM Eastern time, to comply. As of this writing, the CDC website on ‘Transgender and Gender Diverse Persons’ is already back online with a note up top that says the CDC’s website ‘is being modified to comply with President Trump’s Executive Orders.’ The judge’s decision is part of a temporary restraining order that he has granted as requested by the Doctors for America. Represented by Public Citizen, the non-profit organization sued the CDC (PDF), the FDA and the Department of Health in February. It also sued the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), which issued the memo for the pages’ removal.” (02/12/25)
