Tennessee AG: It was God's will for him to defend gender-affirming care ban at Supreme Court

"I'm in the middle of things that are so much bigger than I have any business being in the middle of. But I'm there for a reason."

"This case could set a precedent affecting gender-affirming care for minors across the United States, with the Supreme Court's ruling expected soon."

Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti believes that it is God's will for him to defend the state's gender-affirming care ban for minors in a Supreme Court case. The law, violated by a lawsuit from families of transgender children, prohibits hormone treatments and puberty blockers for youth. Skrmetti sees his involvement as a divine mandate, emphasizing the moral implications of the case. The Supreme Court's ruling, expected by summer’s end, may greatly influence gender-affirming care laws nationally. The case has drawn support from anti-LGBTQ+ groups.
