Supreme Court Revisits Transgender Rights and Education Cases
The U.S. Supreme Court has overturned appellate rulings in favor of transgender individuals in four states related to access to medical care and legal recognition, following its decision upholding Tennessee's ban on certain gender-affirming treatments for minors. The Court ordered reexamination of cases from Idaho, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and West Virginia, but did not act on cases involving transgender students in school sports. The rulings challenge protections under the Constitution's equal protection clause for transgender people.
