In US v Skrmetti, the court will determine if transgender youth have a constitutional right to access healthcare treatments supported by major medical associations.
The case originated with three trans youth and their parents who sued Tennessee over its ban on gender-affirming healthcare, arguing it was medically necessary.
If upheld, Tennessee's ban would align the court with doctors accused of spreading misinformation and prioritizing religious beliefs over established medical practice.
The outcome of this case could profoundly influence trans rights, bodily autonomy, and the extent of governmental control over personal healthcare decisions.
