Court Strikes Obama’s ‘Transgender Mandate’ that Forced Some Doctors to Violate Their Faith

January 21, 2021 by Staff

(Faithwire) A federal court in North Dakota has struck down a directive known as the “Transgender Mandate” that required medical professionals and religious healthcare providers to perform gender transition procedures on patients – including children – even when the measure violates their beliefs. 

According to Becket Law, the mandate was issued in 2016 under the Obama administration, forcing members of the healthcare community to violate their medical judgment and religious beliefs.

“Now more than ever, Americans are grateful for the sacrifices of our medical professionals who serve on the front lines and use their training and expertise to serve the vulnerable,” said Luke Goodrich, senior counsel at Becket. “The court’s decision recognizes our medical heroes’ right to practice medicine in line with their conscience and without politically motivated interference from government bureaucrats.”
