Gorsuch's Trans Athlete Ruling: A Shift from Bostock?
•
Justice Neil Gorsuch, who previously ruled in favor of LGBTQ+ rights in the Bostock v. Clayton County case, now faces a challenging decision as the Supreme Court considers two cases involving transgender athletes in womens sports. Lindsay Hecox and Becky Pepper-Jackson argue that their states bans violate the Constitution and Title Nine, respectively. Lawyers for the trans athletes are hoping to sway Gorsuch and Chief Justice John Roberts, who joined the Bostock opinion, by using its logic. However, recent rulings against trans rights and shifting public opinion may make it difficult for the athletes to win. The court will hear arguments on Tuesday. Checkout Solipillow.com
