U.S. District Judge Jay Moody struck down Tuesday Arkansas' first-in-the-nation ban as unconstitutional, arguing it violated young people's right to equal protection under the law and due process, and those of their parents. He also ruled Arkansas' law violated the free speech rights of doctors in the state.
"There's no question this is a huge victory; it's a precedent. We all hope and pray that this will have a ripple effect and an impact on other legislators and courts across the country," Cathy Renna, communications director for the National LGBTQ Task Force, told USA TODAY.
