联邦贸易委员会表示，纽约州的保护法正在干涉其关于跨性别医疗的联邦调查。一起涉及纽约州一家医院的联邦贸易委员会传票争议，使该法的适用范围成为争议焦点。
The Federal Trade Commission says New York's shield law is interfering with its federal investigation into transgender care. A dispute over an FTC subpoena involving a New York hospital has put the law's reach at issue.
一张夹在州法与联邦法之间的传票 根据路透社报道，纽约州总检察长办公室警告一家纽约州医院不要遵守联邦贸易委员会的传票。这一警告是涉及该州保护法的争议的一部分。
A Subpoena Caught Between State and Federal Law According to a Reuters report, New York's attorney general's office warned a New York hospital against complying with an FTC subpoena. The warning is part of a dispute involving the state's shield law.
其他联邦对儿科医疗的审查 另外，联邦贸易委员会涉及WPATH的行动，涉及该组织关于安全性、有效性和医疗必要性的声称的指控。司法部对锡奈山医院的单独调查涉及儿科医疗，包括青春期阻断剂、激素治疗和手术程序。
Other Federal Scrutiny of Pediatric Care Separately, an FTC action involving WPATH concerns allegations about the organization's claims on safety, effectiveness and medical necessity. The Justice Department's separate investigation of Mount Sinai involved pediatric care including puberty blockers, hormone therapy and surgical procedures.
该以WPATH为重点的案件可追溯至2026年中期，当时联邦贸易委员会联合阿拉斯加州、爱荷华州、内布拉斯加州和德克萨斯州提起诉讼，指控该组织为医疗服务提供者向父母做出虚假和无根据的声称提供了手段，以销售儿科医疗性别过渡服务，据联邦贸易委员会称。该机构的请愿材料描述了WPATH在制定护理标准方面的作用，这些标准阐述了关于跨性别和性别多元人群的精神病学、心理学、医学和外科管理的专业共识，据联邦贸易委员会的一份文件称。
That WPATH-focused case dates to mid-2026, when the FTC, joined by Alaska, Iowa, Nebraska and Texas, filed a lawsuit alleging the organization had provided the means for medical providers to make false and unsubstantiated claims to parents in order to sell pediatric medical transition services, according to the Federal Trade Commission. The agency's petition materials describe WPATH's role in producing Standards of Care that articulate a professional consensus on the psychiatric, psychological, medical and surgical management of transgender and gender diverse people, per an FTC filing.
其他医院协议 先前的协议还涉及德克萨斯儿童医院、克利夫兰诊所基金会和康涅狄格州儿童医院。
Other Hospital Agreements Prior agreements also involved Texas Children's Hospital, the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and Connecticut Children's Hospital.
司法部自身的公开记录显示，联邦政府对医院在儿科性别确认护理方面施压存在平行轨迹。该部门在9月宣布与锡奈山医院达成协议，称该协议解决了一项与儿科性别确认护理相关的潜在联邦法律违规调查。
The Justice Department's own public record shows a parallel track of federal pressure on hospitals over pediatric gender-affirming care. The department announced an agreement with Mount Sinai in September that it said resolved an investigation into potential federal-law violations tied to pediatric gender-affirming care.
关于仍未解决的问题，西奈山医院和纽约州总检察长莱蒂西亚·詹姆斯的办公室均未就联邦贸易委员会的最新举措发表公开评论。西奈山医院未立即回应置评请求，詹姆斯办公室拒绝置评，路透社报道称。传票之争发生在特朗普政府推动全国范围内限制性别肯定医疗服务的更广泛努力之际，该通讯社指出，法院将如何权衡纽约州盾牌法的保护与联邦贸易委员会的优先权论点，仍有待观察。
What Remains Unresolved Neither Mount Sinai nor the office of New York Attorney General Letitia James has weighed in publicly on the FTC's latest move. Mount Sinai did not immediately respond to a request for comment, and James' office declined to comment, Reuters reported. The fight over the subpoena arrives as the Trump administration pursues broader efforts to curtail access to gender-affirming care nationally, the wire service noted, though it remains to be seen how a court will weigh New York's shield-law protections against the FTC's preemption argument.
据纽约州总检察长办公室的指导意见，纽约州总检察长表示，盾牌法的保护适用于刑事和民事诉讼，涵盖传讯证词、证据提交和场所检查的传票。这些保护如何适用于联邦贸易委员会涉及一家纽约医院的传票，仍未解决。
New York's attorney general has said the shield law's protections apply to both criminal and civil proceedings and cover subpoenas for deposition testimony, production of evidence, and inspection of premises, according to guidance from the New York Attorney General. How those protections apply to the FTC's subpoena involving a New York hospital remains unresolved.
