Arizona lawmakers raise ethical concerns about trans advocate's testimony

Arizona state lawmakers have alerted the Department of Justice about potential plagiarism by Dr. Daniel Shumer, a transgender youth advocate. They claim his expert testimony against President Trump's order on child sex changes contains identical language to other reports without proper attribution. Shumer initially denied the allegations but later admitted to not citing other experts. Lawmakers have filed a motion to exclude his testimony from a case challenging Arizona's Save Women’s Sports Act due to these concerns. The lawmakers also raised questions about Shumer's timeline, suggesting he may have worked against the U.S. while still serving as a witness for the government. They have asked the DOJ to investigate possible ethical and legal violations.
