## Resource

The FTC and several states launch a bold legal challenge against WPATH, accusing the transgender health association of misleading parents by framing gender-affirming care guidelines as medically essential—when critics say they’re really designed to secure insurance revenue. WPATH fiercely defends its science-backed standards, calling the suit a politically motivated attack on patient autonomy and medical freedom, and vows to fight back, citing past legal victories against the FTC’s scrutiny.
