Health and civil rights enforcement action. Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield led a coalition of 19 states and the District of Columbia in filing a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The suit challenges a December 18, 2025 HHS 'declaration' that claims certain gender-affirming care is 'unsafe and ineffective' and threatens to exclude providers from Medicare/Medicaid for offering such care. The attorneys general argue HHS violated federal administrative law by implementing a major policy change without required notice-and-comment rulemaking, creating fear for patients and providers and threatening state Medicaid programs.
