HHS tells states parental refusal to affirm a child’s gender identity should not alone justify removal The Department of Health and Human Services said it sent letters to all 50 states reminding them that children should not be removed from their homes solely because parents decline to support a child's self‑identified gender, citing the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act.

The HHS has issued a powerful reminder to all states: removing children from homes based solely on a parent's refusal to affirm a child's gender identity is not acceptable under federal law.

Supreme Court temporarily allows California schools to notify parents about students’ gender transitions On March 2, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling allowing California schools to inform parents if their children wish to change their gender identity, temporarily blocking a state law that prohibited automatic parental notification. The emergency appeal was filed by the conservative Thomas More Society, representing two sets of Catholic parents who argued that the law, signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2024, undermined their religious beliefs and parental rights. The parents claimed that the law allowed schools to facilitate gender transitions without their knowledge, violating their right to raise their children according to their religious convictions. California defended the law, emphasizing students’ right to privacy, especially if they feared familial rejection, and argued that state policies aimed to balance student privacy with parental rights. The Supreme Court reinstated a lower-court order blocking the law and related school policies while the case continues. The ruling was supported by conservative justices, while liberal justices dissented, stating that the case should proceed through normal lower-court procedures. Federal education authorities also found the California law in violation of federal law, which could jeopardize nearly $8 billion in education funding for the state if unresolved. The ruling is being closely watched as similar cases in other states, including Massachusetts and Florida, are under consideration, raising nationwide discussions about parental rights and student privacy in gender identity matters.

No vote was taken at the hearing.
