Supreme Court to rule on key transgender care case: What's at stake for minors

^{Published on 2024-12-03 05:31:06 - Brian Stokes, N@N}

The Supreme Court will consider if states can keep transgender adolescents from puberty blockers and hormone therapy, a major culture war flashpoint.

The Supreme Court is set to hear a case involving a Tennessee law that bans gender-affirming care for transgender minors, marking a significant legal battle over transgender rights. This law, which prohibits hormone therapy, puberty blockers, and surgeries for transgender youth, has been challenged by families and medical professionals arguing that it violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment and infringes on parental rights. The case has drawn national attention, with implications for similar laws in other states. The Biden administration has filed a brief supporting the challengers, emphasizing the potential harm to transgender youth if such care is denied. The outcome of this case could set a precedent for how transgender healthcare is regulated across the U.S., influencing both policy and the lives of transgender individuals.
