Supreme Court denies Trump administration’s bid to enforce BOP’s 2026 gender-dysphoria prison policy while appeals continue

On 21 October 2026 the Supreme Court denied the Solicitor General’s emergency application (No. 26A416) to stay D.D.C. orders that bar the Bureau of Prisons from enforcing its February 2026 policy ending surgeries, general new hormone interventions and social accommodations for gender dysphoria. Justices Thomas and Alito would have granted the stay. The order gives no reasons and does not decide the merits; the lower-court block stays in place while the appeal continues.
