Supreme Court Upholds Block on Transgender Student Protections in 26 States

Aug 16, 2024, 11:10 PM

The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld existing injunctions that block the Biden administration's protections for transgender students from taking effect in 26 states. This decision maintains the status quo in several Republican-led states, where the protections had been challenged. The ruling is seen as a significant moment in the ongoing debate over transgender rights and education policies. While some view this as a victory for women's sports, others express concern over the potential future implications for the Supreme Court's composition and decisions.
