What the agency says
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS or the Department) is issuing this document to clarify the non-enforceability of certain language that was included in the preamble to--but not the regulatory text of--the May 9, 2024, final rule titled "Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance." Language in the preamble concerning gender dysphoria, which language is not included in the regulatory text, does not have the force or effect of law. Therefore, it cannot be enforced.
