The Supreme Court is set to hear a pivotal transgender rights case challenging Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, affecting similar laws nationwide.
Chase Strangio, the first openly transgender lawyer to argue before the court, emphasizes that Tennessee's law discriminates against minors, questioning the discriminatory application of care.
The Biden administration advocates for interpreting the equal protection clause to ensure that transgender minors receive equal treatment under the law, paralleling previous landmark decisions.
The court's ruling could set a precedent influencing various state-level laws regulating transgender rights, including issues around sports participation and access to restrooms.
