特朗普政府请求最高法院允许终止跨性别囚犯医疗待遇的政策实施

华盛顿讯—— 特朗普政府于周一请求最高法院暂时恢复美国联邦监狱管理局的一项政策,该政策将终止为跨性别囚犯提供医疗干预措施和住宿便利。

美国司法部的紧急上诉源于联邦地区法院上月发布的一项禁令,该禁令继续禁止联邦监狱管理局对任何已被或将被诊断为性别焦虑症的囚犯执行新规定。

负责审理这项政策诉讼的美国地区法官罗伊斯·兰伯斯特下令特朗普政府继续向一类跨性别囚犯提供医疗护理。

去年,一群被诊断为性别焦虑症的囚犯提起诉讼,此前特朗普总统在其第二任期伊始发布了一项行政命令,禁止在联邦监狱管理局系统内使用联邦资金为跨性别囚犯提供医疗程序或治疗。紧随该指令之后,联邦监狱管理局发布了新指南,禁止工作人员为这类囚犯提供服装住宿便利,并禁止使用联邦资金开展医疗干预。

联邦监狱管理局随后在2月发布了一项新政策,称其独立于特朗普总统的行政命令。根据这些规定,该机构将继续为被诊断为性别焦虑症的囚犯提供心理健康服务,但不会为缓解性别焦虑提供手术、激素治疗或住宿便利,如束胸衣、假发或胸垫。

兰伯斯特在6月同意叫停这项新规定,并下令联邦监狱管理局继续为跨性别囚犯提供医疗治疗。法官在部分裁决中指出,政府的新政策是“为落实特朗普总统的行政命令而量身定制的”。他随后于上月发布命令,继续禁止该政策的执行。

美国司法部提起了上诉。本月早些时候,美国哥伦比亚特区巡回上诉法院拒绝在诉讼程序进行期间恢复该政策。

在向最高法院提出的紧急救济请求中,特朗普政府指责地区法院“用自身的政策判断取代了行政机构的判断”。司法部副部长D.约翰·索尔表示,联邦监狱管理局认定其针对跨性别囚犯医疗待遇的政策“对维护机构安全至关重要”,并警告称地区法院的判决“无效化”了这一判断。

索尔表示,下级法院的命令“在广泛范围内阻止了政府所选择的政策的实施”。

Trump administration asks Supreme Court to allow policy ending medical treatments for transgender inmates

September 28, 2026 / 11:41 AM EDT / CBS News

Washington — The Trump administration on Monday asked the Supreme Court to revive for now a Bureau of Prisons policy cutting off medical interventions and social accommodations for transgender inmates.

The Justice Department’s emergency appeal stems from a federal district court order issued last month that continued to prohibit the Bureau of Prisons from enforcing its new rules against any inmate who is or will be diagnosed with gender dysphoria.

The judge overseeing a challenge to the policy, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth, ordered the Trump administration to continue providing medical care to a class of transgender inmates.

A group of inmates diagnosed with gender dysphoria filed a lawsuit last year after President Trump issued an executive order at the start of his second term that prohibited the use of federal funds for medical procedures or treatments for transgender inmates within the federal Bureau of Prisons system. On the heels of that directive, the bureau issued new guidance that prohibited staff from granting requests for clothing accommodations for those inmates and barred the use of federal dollars for medical interventions.

The Bureau of Prisons then issued a new policy in February that it said was independent of Mr. Trump’s executive order. Under those rules, the agency would continue providing mental health services for inmates diagnosed with gender dysphoria, but would not provide surgeries, hormone therapy or social accommodations, like chest binders, wigs or breast padding, to address gender dysphoria.

Lamberth agreed to block the new rules in June and ordered the Bureau of Prisons to continue providing medical treatments to transgender inmates. The judge ruled in part that the administration’s new policy was “reverse engineered” to implement Mr. Trump’s executive order. He then issued an order last month continuing to block enforcement of the rules.

The Justice Department appealed. Earlier this month, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit declined to restore the policy while proceedings moved forward.

In its request for emergency relief to the Supreme Court, the Trump administration accused the district court of “substituting its own policy judgment for that of the agency.” The Bureau of Prisons, Solicitor General D. John Sauer said, determined its policy on medical treatments for transgender inmates was “necessary to maintain institutional security,” and he warned that the district court’s decision “nullifies” that judgment.

Sauer said the lower court order “prevents the application of the Executive’s chosen policy” on a broad basis.
