YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The Supreme Court on Wednesday morning will hear a challenge to Tennessee’s ban on gender affirming care for minors — a landmark case that could have wide-reaching implications for the future of transgender health care in the U.S.

Legal challenges mounted by transgender youths, their families and medical providers have been met with mixed results, and federal appeals courts have been split over whether the bans are constitutional.

How the nation’s highest court rules on the case could impact laws passed by 24 Republican-led states since 2021 banning medications like puberty blockers and hormones for transgender children and teens.

More than 160 House and Senate Democrats have called on the Supreme Court to strike down the Volunteer State’s ban.

The hearing is set to begin at 10 a.m. EST.
