Texas Scorecard by Ryan Dy-Liacco June 17, 2025
A federal district court granted a motion to vacate a Department of Health and Human Services rule forcing gender identity ideology onto Texas’ foster care system.
The final rule, named the “Designated Placement Requirements Under Titles IV-E and IV-B for LGBTQI+ Children,” would have prevented foster care programs from receiving federal funding unless they created a category of foster children who have “LGBTQ+ identities.”
“Biden’s attack on Texas’s foster care system, families, and laws has been totally defeated,” Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said Tuesday in a press release.
Since September 2024, Paxton has fought the Biden Administration on the rule, which went into effect in early July 2024.
