These Subpoenas Targeting Opponents Of Chemical Castration Prove Biden Is The Real Culture War Villain
The Biden administration has gone nuclear in the culture wars by launching an attack on the First Amendment rights of Americans daring to challenge the far-left’s transgender agenda, two new court filings from Wednesday reveal.
On Wednesday, the attorneys representing the Eagle Forum of Alabama and the Southeast Law Institute filed two separate motions to quash documents subpoenaed by the United States as part of the discovery in the ongoing case of Eknes-Tucker v. Marshall. In Eknes-Tucker, four transgender-identifying children, their parents, and several others sued the governor of Alabama and other state officials, challenging the constitutionality of the Alabama Vulnerable Child Compassion and Protection Act (“Vulnerable Child Act”).
Signed into law by Alabama’s governor on April 8, 2022, the Vulnerable Child Act prohibits the administration of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, or surgical procedures performed on minors “if the practice is performed for the purpose of attempting to alter the appearance of or affirm the minor’s perception of his or her gender or sex, if that appearance or perception is inconsistent with the minor’s sex.”
The plaintiffs in Eknes-Tucker argue the Vulnerable Child Act violates the constitutional right of parents to obtain medical treatment for their children and the equal-protection rights of transgender minors. The United States joined the lawsuit as a plaintiff, also arguing that the Alabama law violates the federal Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection under the law.
In May, federal Judge Liles Burke, a Donald Trump appointee, entered a preliminary injunction prohibiting Alabama from enforcing those portions of the act that ban the use of puberty blockers and wrong-sex hormones. Alabama appealed the preliminary injunction order to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the federal appellate court has scheduled a tentative hearing for the week of November 14, 2022.
