The Supreme Court did not take a necessary opportunity to provide clarity, particularly with such a split among the appellate courts on this issue. It makes little sense for SCOTUS not to resolve the difference in federal cases — but because of this split — children in other parts of this country will be properly protected,” the spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
“Unfortunately for now, our schools will be forced to allow transgender students to use whichever bathroom they feel corresponds to the gender identity they've picked to use on that day. We will continue our fight so regular, common-sense Hoosier parents can raise their children free of this toxic transanity,” the spokesperson added.
Republicans in several states have pursued various laws that affect transgender people, including policies that reinforce bathroom and locker room segregation by sex, school sports participation, access to sex-reassignment medical procedures for minors, and restrictions on what schools teach about sexual orientation and gender identity.
