YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Supreme Court seemed receptive to state bans on transgender girls competing on girls and women’s school sports teams during high-stakes oral arguments.
The case thrusts the justices into the center of the national debate over transgender athletes, which has bubbled up in the lower courts in response to a recent wave of bans passed by GOP-led state legislatures.
Across three hours of arguments, several conservative justices appeared skeptical of arguments that the bans broadly discriminate on the basis of sex and gender identity. The court’s liberal wing, however, suggested the athletes could still narrowly challenge their individual circumstances.
