Chase Strangio, a transgender lawyer, argued before the Supreme Court that Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care deprives trans youth of their only effective treatment. He emphasized that the state is imposing suffering on these individuals by denying healthcare that has proven essential.
US solicitor general Elizabeth Prelogar highlighted the inconsistency of the ban, stating it discriminates against trans individuals by allowing non-trans patients access to puberty blockers for other medical purposes. She underscored that the law's facial sex classification lacks rational justification.
