- Complaint filed — Doe v. Department of Defense (D. Md. 8:25-cv-02947) — Two minor children and a young adult filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland challenging the Department of Defense's June 11, 2025 revision to the TRICARE policy manual, which eliminated coverage for gender transition medications and therapy for both children and adults. The revision followed President Trump's January 28, 2025 Executive Order 14187. Plaintiffs allege the policy change violated the Administrative Procedure Act by failing to follow required rulemaking procedures and notice requirements, and violated separation of powers. They seek declaratory judgment that the new policy is unlawful and a permanent injunction against enforcement.
