Supreme Court Ruling on Transgender Treatments for Minors Draws Media Criticism as Rights Debate Intensifies
TENNESSEE, UNITED STATES, JUN 18 – The Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling allows states to restrict gender-affirming care for minors, affecting over 20 states with similar laws, according to legal experts and advocacy groups.
- The Supreme Court upheld Tennessee's SB 1 law on Wednesday by a 6-3 vote, banning gender-affirming care for minors under age 18.
- This ruling follows a wider backlash against trans rights, with SB 1 allowing care only to align a child’s body with their birth-assigned sex.
- Justice Sonia Sotomayor dissented bitterly, accusing the Court of abandoning transgender youth, ignoring sex classification protections under Title VII.
- A 2025 study published in JAMA Pediatrics reported that puberty blockers or hormone therapy were administered to just 0.1% of transgender adolescents who had private insurance.
- The ruling likely limits essential medical care access for transgender youth, heightens discriminatory state policies, and signals ongoing legal conflicts.

Maybe a classmate or a stranger said something that alerted you to it. Maybe you know the way teenagers often know things: As the world came into focus, this thing about yourself became clear as could be. In an…

Supreme Court justice FURIOUS; claims ruling ‘abandons transgender children’
In a major victory for those who care about the physical and mental health of America’s youth, the Supreme Court voted 6-3 to uphold Tennessee’s Senate bill, which prohibits medical providers from providing puberty blockers and hormones for a minor’s sex change operation. “If this had gone the other way,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says, “I cannot even explain how horribly disastrous that would have been for this country and for the next generat…
