Statement on Fifth Circuit Decision in Deanda v. Becerra

Advocates for Youth is extremely disappointed to learn the court held that the Title X statute’s confidentiality protections do not preempt or supersede Texas’s parental consent law. We are however glad that the Fifth Circuit reversed the lower court’s order vacating a 2021 federal regulation that explicitly prohibits Title X providers from requiring parental consent and declined to rule as to whether the regulation preempts the Texas law. 

A Win for the Young People of Florida

This court settlement is progress and an important win for teachers, students and advocates in Florida. We need to get rid of transphobic and homophobic laws in Florida and every state that has them on the books to ensure all young people see themselves represented in the classroom and in curriculum.
