Supreme Court to Hear Arguments on Tennessee's Ban on Gender-Affirming Care for Minors
Dec 4, 2024, 03:16 AM
The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear arguments in a landmark case, U.S. v. Skrmetti, challenging Tennessee's law that bans gender-affirming care for transgender minors. This case marks the first time the Supreme Court will consider the constitutionality of state laws restricting youth access to such care, which includes hormone therapy, puberty blockers, and surgeries. The arguments will revolve around whether these bans violate the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. The case has drawn significant attention, with protests occurring outside the Supreme Court and a transgender attorney from the ACLU set to argue in favor of overturning the ban. The outcome could set a precedent for similar laws in 26 other states and potentially affect future legislation regarding transgender rights and medical care for minors.
