West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey has vowed to appeal an unfavorable court ruling overturning the state’s transgender sports ban all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, with athlete and policy advocate Riley Gaines joining him in calling for protections for women’s sports.
“We’re not going to allow the elites in the swamp to impose their values on West Virginia citizens,” Mr. Morrisey said at a press conference in the state Capitol in Charleston on April 24, during which he said his office would soon be filing a petition with the Supreme Court challenging last week’s court ruling that overturned West Virginia’s transgender sports ban.
