The Supreme Court on June 30 threw out several lower court rulings, directing judges to take a second look at their decisions in light of a recent ruling that upheld Tennessee’s ban on transgender procedures for minors.
Three of the cases—from West Virginia, North Carolina, and Idaho—concern whether a state may exclude transgender surgeries from coverage under various health insurance plans. A fourth case concerns whether Oklahoma is violating the U.S. Constitution by requiring that birth certificates reflect a person’s sex at birth.
