Supreme Court Hears Passport Gender Case

The Trump administration appealed to the Supreme Court to reinstate a passport policy requiring male or female sex designations based on birth certificates, rejecting gender identity markers. A lower court blocked the policy, which the administration argues is necessary to maintain accurate official documents. The plaintiffs contend the policy violates the rights of transgender and nonbinary individuals. This is the latest in a series of legal battles concerning LGBTQ+ rights during the Trump administration, echoing previous stances on military service and healthcare.
