Texas governor confirms state sent voter rolls to Justice Department for review of potential ineligible registrations, citing election integrity concerns.
A group of Republican attorneys general and female sports advocates gathered Monday in Washington, D.C., to call on the Supreme Court to give states the ability to set sex-based rules for school athletics.
The group, which included former college swimmer turned activist Riley Gaines, said a decision by the high court in a pair of cases examining transgender athletes in school sports would serve to preserve fairness in women’s sports.
The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in the two cases, brought by Idaho and West Virginia, on Tuesday.
Those gathered at the event said the cases could be landmarks in the legal fight over policies surrounding transgender people.
The high court could decide to rule narrowly on the rights of transgender athletes or offer a more sweeping precedent over discrimination claims across industries. The decision could have far-reaching impacts on transgender bathroom policies and sex designation on documents, such as passports and driver's licenses.
