## Resource

The Supreme Court just sided with 27 states, upholding laws that bar transgender athletes from women’s sports, ruling that states can enforce biological sex separation to ensure fairness and safety. The decision, stemming from cases in Idaho and West Virginia, rejects claims that these laws violate Title IX, with Justice Kavanaugh affirming states’ right to protect women’s sports. Justice Sotomayor countered that there’s no solid science proving transgender athletes pose a threat. Advocates for trans athletes called the ruling painful but affirmed the dignity of every youth, while supporters hailed it as a win for athletic integrity. Both sides now urge Congress to act—either to amend Title IX or codify the Court’s ruling nationwide.
