US EditionUS Supreme Court Allows State Bans on Gender Transition Care for Minors
- On Wednesday, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld Tennessee's Senate Bill 1, allowing the state and 27 others to prohibit medical treatments such as hormone medications and puberty-delaying interventions for minors identifying as transgender.
- This ruling follows earlier steps including a 6th Circuit panel’s 2-1 decision last September and a Missouri judge upholding a similar law last year.
- The Tennessee law, known as Senate Bill 1, prohibits irreversible procedures for minors and the Court found no violation of the Equal Protection Clause.
- Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey said the ruling affirms states’ duty to protect children, while advocate Katy Erker-Lynch called the decision devastating.
- Meanwhile, Kansas faces ongoing legal disputes over gender marker changes on driver’s licenses after its Court of Appeals reversed a block but KDOR and the Attorney General delay implementation.
