   EXCLUSIVE — Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is demanding access to all   
   communications between the Department of Justice and the American   
   Medical Association (AMA), which last week asked the attorney general   
   to investigate and prosecute alleged "disinformation campaigns" against   
   gender-altering surgeries for minors.   
      
   In a Monday evening letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland obtained   
   exclusively by Fox News Digital, Cruz accused the department of a   
   "continued pattern of abusing its investigative authority to police the   
   speech of Americans and stifle ongoing policy debates," He said the   
   Oct. 3 letter from the AMA raises the possibility that the DOJ will try   
   to act on that request by taking action against people who openly   
   criticize gender-related surgeries.   
      
   "This request by advocacy organizations to have the federal government   
   stifle critical speech on their behalf would have been unthinkable   
   before your tenure as Attorney General." Cruz wrote. But he said the   
   Biden administration has supported these kinds of efforts in the past.
