The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favour of overturning the decisions of lower courts that found laws in Idaho and West Virginia banning transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports at the school level violated the U.S. Constitution and a federal anti-discrimination law.
The 6-3 ruling to uphold the laws in Idaho and West Virginia opens the pathway for as many as 29 other states to pursue laws that limit the participation of trans athletes in women’s sports.
