- The United States Supreme Court decided not to hear a case from South Carolina regarding a proposed ban on transgender students using bathrooms that align with their gender identity in public schools.
- South Carolina sought to implement a law that would restrict bathroom access for transgender students, limiting them to facilities that match their sex assigned at birth.
- The Supreme Court’s refusal to take up the case effectively means the state’s attempt to enforce the transgender bathroom ban cannot proceed at the federal level.
- This decision signals a setback for those in South Carolina advocating for stricter bathroom access policies for transgender students in public schools.
- Opponents of the ban argue that such measures are discriminatory and violate the rights of transgender individuals.
