The Supreme Court issued its ruling in U.S. v. Skrmetti, a challenge brought by three transgender adolescents, their families, and a Memphis-based medical provider against a Tennessee law banning gender-affirming hormone therapies for transgender people under 18.

The Supreme Court has failed to protect families’ freedoms and allowed politicians’ targeting of transgender youth’s healthcare needs to stand. This is a painful setback, but the Court left us with other tools to fight back against the political extremists targeting transgender people’s safety and dignity.

We are coming together in a "PROUD AND FREE: National Week of Action" to support trans people, push back on disinformation, and affirm that our communities are united for trans power.

What is U.S. v. Skrmetti? A lawsuit filed by @ACLU, @LambdaLegal, @ACLU of Tennessee and Akin Gump on behalf of transgender youth and their families challenging Tennessee’s categorical ban (SB1) on gender-affirming medical care for transgender youth.

Why does it matter? This case is about the constitutionality of states banning access to critical medical care for trans minors, particularly gender-affirming care. This could have nationwide impact on access to care, trans rights, and other sex-based discrimination by the government.
