The Supreme Court is leaning toward allowing bans on trans athletes in girls’ sports. 🏳️⚧️
The court heard cases from West Virginia and Idaho, where laws bar trans students from competing in girls’ sports.
Justices signaled they may uphold the bans, citing Title IX’s “sex-based classifications” in sports, but science shows no clear competitive advantage for trans girls like Pepper-Jackson and Hecox.
If upheld, similar laws in 25+ states could take effect, rolling back protections for transgender athletes nationwide.
Here at The GIST, we stand with trans athletes. Sports should be for everyone. 💜
