## Resource

The Supreme Court just struck a major blow to transgender rights by upholding state bans on transgender girls and women competing in school sports, ruling these laws constitutional and compatible with Title IX. With a conservative majority, the court sided with states like Idaho and West Virginia, allowing them to enforce gender-based athletic categories. Justice Kavanaugh emphasized states’ right to protect women’s sports for biological females, continuing a troubling trend for transgender Americans. Real lives are at stake—Becky Pepper-Jackson, a West Virginia teen who became a state champion, and Lindsay Hecox, who fought to compete in college track, illustrate the human cost. Meanwhile, the court left open questions about laws in other states that permit transgender athletes to compete by gender identity, leaving the legal landscape uncertain. Though transgender athletes in college are rare, the debate rages on, shaping the future of gender identity in public life.
