Supreme Court Reverses Transgender Rights Rulings | JQJO

The Supreme Court remanded several lower court rulings favoring transgender rights, citing its recent decision upholding Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors. These cases involved state policies excluding gender-affirming care from health insurance and restricting birth certificate sex changes. Lower courts must now reconsider their decisions in light of the Supreme Court's June 18 ruling. While the court avoided addressing all transgender-related laws, the possibility of stricter future rulings against transgender rights remains. Cases involving transgender athletes were not addressed.
