A new law in Alabama makes it a felony for doctors to treat transgender people under the age of 19 with puberty-blockers and hormones.

Sydney Duncan holds a sign during a rally at the Alabama State House to draw attention to anti-transgender legislation introduced in Alabama on March 30, 2021 in Montgomery, Alabama. A new state law that took effect Sunday in Alabama makes it a felony, punishable by up to 10 years in prison, for doctors to prescribe puberty blockers and hormones to trans people under age 19.

Four Alabama families with transgender children have filed a lawsuit challenging the law as unconstitutional. The U.S. Department of Justice has joined the suit.
