AUSTIN, TX: "Texas is appealing a judge's ruling that prevents the state from investigating a transgender teenager's parents over gender confirming care she received. Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton filed the appeal Wednesday of the temporary order halting the investigation by the Department of Family and Protective Services into the parents of the 16-year-old girl. The parents sued over the investigation and Republican Gov. Greg Abbott’s order last week that officials look into reports of such treatments as abuse. The lawsuit marked the first report of parents being investigated following Abbott’s directive and an earlier nonbinding legal opinion by Paxton labeling certain gender-confirmation treatments as “child abuse.” The appeal stays a hearing District Judge Amy Clark Meachum had scheduled for March 11 on whether to issue a broader temporary order blocking enforcement of Abbott’s directive."

"ArcelorMittal said Thursday that it has decided to halt its steelmaking operations in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine. Kryvyi Rih is one of Europe's biggest steel mills and has around 29,000 employees and contractors in the country. The steelmaker had previously reduced production to a technical minimum, but decided to halt production entirely, "in order to ensure the safety and security of our people and assets." The process to safely idle the plant's blast furnaces should take up to ten days, ArcelorMittal said."
