Ultimately, this will force the states to take this seriously. I'm glad that SCOTUS wrote the decision so that it will be the responsibility of the state, but with the backing of Federal Law. All it's going to take is one upset family with a good lawyer and that state will comply. I'll go further and say that school systems....always crying for more money......will put an end the clap-trap rather than risk pricey litigation and an expensive law suit. Anyway 9-0 on one ruling and 6-3 ruling on the other is a pretty good outcome IMHO.
Thank you, George. It was a good day today.
Crazy times, when two plus two supposedly equals unicorn (in the words of the English journalist Hadley Freeman)!

Next we need the legal destruction of WPATH, the main purveyor of the false and mendacious gospel of "gender-affirming care":

I hope so. I actually was not aware that SCOTUS was also ruling on the definition of sex in Title IX but am gratified by the 9-0 response.
