The Supreme Court on Thursday allowed a 12-year-old transgender girl in West Virginia to continue competing on her middle school’s girls sports teams while a lawsuit over a state ban continues.…

The justices refused to disturb an appeals court order that made it possible for the girl, Becky Pepper-Jackson, to continue playing on her school’s track and cross-country teams, where she regularly finishes near the back of the pack.

Two weeks ago, track and field banned transgender athletes from international competitions. West Virginia is among 20 states that ban transgender athletes from participating in sports consistent with their gender identity, according to Movement Advancement Project, a pro-LGBTQ rights think tank.part of an effort in Republican-led states across the country to curb LGBTQ+ rights this year.

U.S. District Court Judge Joseph Goodwin initially barred West Virginia from enforcing its law and allowed Pepper-Jackson to compete on the girls’ teams while the case continued. Lawyers for the girl, known in the lawsuit by the initials B.P.J., appealed. A three-judge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals voted 2-1, without issuing any opinion, to put the law on hold while it considers the case.

I am not sure why people call the Supreme Court 'conservative', there are only two conservatives on it. It has three radical left-wing extremists, one leftist, and three slightly left-of-center Justices.

Not a “girl” and whether he consistently finishes “in the back of the pack” is irrelevant. is woke leftist media.

This has got to stop somehow

nycpoetesss Why do Democrats hate biological women? After finally being heard and making strides like never before, now a guy in a dress can take her hard earned success from her and liberals applaud. DemocratsAreTheProblem

Complete misunderstanding/ misrepresentation of the Court’s function with regard to this case.

Stop erasing women! mencantbewomen

Lets all pretend to be trans girl. So everyone can join

Democrats HATE WOMEN.

That's f**ked up

This should be no problem, let her run by her self!! You girls have the power!!

Where are you MeTooMVMT

Women do not exist under the current liberal totalitarian state.

The war on women continues!

Bio girls that don’t sit down for these races deserve what they get.

'trust the science' when it comes to vaccines made in a month 'Don't believe science' that has been around since human life began

Judge accepted the bribe 🤑. That's a story that isn't told.

Female athletes matter! And so do their feelings.

Ignoring science.

Male ruins female sports.

The parents need to stick together and pull their daughters from the sport. Make the kid compete against itself. Alone.

Good

Bad idea!

I. THOUGHT THAT WAS A RED STATE ❤🇱🇷

Can we bet on the races?

Yeah for woman’s rights!! Oh wait that’s right you literally worked so hard only to go backwards

Now even the Supreme Court enables the demise of our society!

All the other girls should boycott the races. This is about ideology not actual biology.

That is fucked up! This has got to stop! Women and trans men are not equal! We as women fought hard to get women sports and now this bullshit. Speak out girls and women. Don’t normalize this or we lose again! We cannot compete against men, including trans men! 🤯🤯🤬

How any woman votes Democrat is beyond me

The case is on hold until another case is finished

The state supreme court or federal?

Supreme Court says 12-year-old transgender girl may compete against girls in West VirginiaThe U.S. Supreme Court refused West Virginia's bid to bar a 12-year-old transgender girl from competing on the girls' track team at her middle school. With two conservatives in dissent, the court turned down an emergency appeal from the state’s lawyers, who were defending a 2021 law that would classify students based on how their sex was labeled at birth, rather than how they identify.
