(ProsperNews.net) – The US Supreme Court temporarily blocked a Democrat-backed policy on transgenderism altering federal discrimination law that would allow males to compete in female sports and use female-only facilities as well as keeps parents out of the dark when their child is confused about their gender.
On Saturday, Aug. 17, the Supreme Court put a temporary hold on Biden administration legislation that would rewrite discrimination law nationwide.
The alteration rewrites the regulation on schools which makes any refusal by public education institutions to cooperate with the “social transition” of students who identify as transgender would constitute discrimination under the 1972 Title IX amendment. Additionally, it would allow private firms to penalize and sue schools where students and staff refuse to comply with redefining boys as girls and vice versa once they state their so-called “gender identity.” Lawyers could sue schools if they exclude boys from girls’ sports teams, bathrooms, or locker rooms.
Heritage Foundation legal experts Sarah Parshall Perry and Edwin Meese III said in a published statement that the rewrite of Title IX was “dangerous and illegal,” and that the Supreme Court decision marks “a day of celebration… for female students” across all grade levels in 26 states.
Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate, supports the rewrite and the Biden administration has openly promoted so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors throughout President Joe Biden’s time in office. Despite the White House championing transgenderism, a growing movement of public opposition continues, particularly from parents who believe the government is trying to cut them out of the picture.
In contrast to Harris, former President Donald Trump has maintained that he will stand up for parents and their right to be involved in what’s happening with their children at school, and will ban the “transitioning” of minors.
The ruling by all nine Supreme Court justices comes in response to the Justice Department’s objection to delay enacting the change after several Attorneys General sued the administration to block the changes from becoming law in 26 states that have legislation contradicting it. Four of the nine justices did vote to allow certain elements of the regulation to continue that were less controversial but were overruled by the majority.
