特朗普政府根据行政令指示联邦监狱局根据生物性别安置囚犯，并停止性别肯定治疗1。根据该政策，十名跨性别女性囚犯目前被集中安置在得克萨斯州沃思堡监狱的同一隔离单位1。这一做法引发法律诉讼，法官Royce Lamberth在周三的听证会上就政府是否违反其先前命令进行了审理1。
法官Lamberth曾于6月7日裁定诉讼当事人必须被安置在女性监狱或女性中途宿舍1。在庭审中，他向司法部律师直言："你违反了我的命令，不是吗？"1囚犯律师主张隔离措施违反宪法保护，并指出隔离加重了性别焦躁症，与抑郁症和自杀倾向有关1。政府律师辩称转移措施并未违反法院命令，且未要求跨性别女性囚犯与顺性别女性囚犯同住或共用空间1。法官未在听证会上当庭做出裁决1。
A federal judge heard arguments Wednesday over whether the Trump administration violated a preliminary injunction by transferring transgender female inmates into a segregated prison unit 1. Judge Royce Lamberth questioned a Justice Department attorney during the hearing, asking, "You violated my order, didn't you?" 1 The judge did not issue a ruling from the bench 1.
The transfers stem from an executive order signed by Trump directing the Federal Bureau of Prisons to house inmates according to biological sex and to halt gender-affirming medical care 1. Ten transgender women are currently held together in an isolated unit at the Federal Correctional Institution in Fort Worth, Texas 1. In a June 7 ruling, Judge Lamberth had ordered that the lawsuit plaintiffs be placed in female prisons or female halfway houses 1.
Attorneys for the inmates argued that the segregated housing exacerbates gender dysphoria and is linked to depression and suicidal ideation, asserting it violates constitutional protections 1. Government lawyers countered that the transfers do not require inmates to share housing or common spaces with cisgender female prisoners 1.
