A federal court has ordered the governments of North Carolina and West Virginia to provide coverage for sex-change operations in state health care plans offered to state employees and through Medicaid.
It is unclear whether the state will appeal the decision.
Pro-life groups have already criticized the move, with Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America calling the effort illegal.
The decision was a blow to pro-life advocates in the state, who have consistently turned out pro-life legislation and court decisions in recent years.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit vacated Thursday a previous injunction barring Texas from stripping affiliates of Medicaid funding.
