And why the debate over gender-affirming care could have far-reaching implications.

The New York Times

#ChaseStrangio, lawyer for the #ACLU, made history today by being the first openly #trans person to argue a case before the U.S. #SupremeCourt. I want to be happy for him, but this is what I'm dealing with on his #Wikipedia talk page today.
I already got the article itself (which I created back in 2017) temporarily semi-protected; I've requested the same for the talk page.

Today SCOTUS heard the case #USvSkrmetti involves a Tennessee law that bans gender affirming care to trans minors (i.e. hormone blockers).

@elienyc.bsky.social (on BlueSky) thinks the bigots will rule 6-3.

The *worst* case scenario for this decision isn't just the recission of trans rights. It's that #SCOTUS basically makes sex discrimination a thing you can never prove.

This Supreme Court case could change everything for trans rights

US v. Skrmetti could slow the wave of anti-trans lawsβ€”or tell policymakers it's "open season."
