Sensing an opportunity, red states have passed a tranche of anti-trans laws, gunning to get some of them before the Supreme Court. The cause for this right-wing salivation lies in the resolution of the big trans rights case last term — U.S. v. Skrmetti. The Court then decided that the law satisfied the lowest level of constitutional review. Pew reported that, since 2022, significantly fewer people now support trans girls playing on girls’ sports teams, trans minors being able to access gender-affirming care and trans people using whichever bathroom matches their identity — all popular right-wing talking points. “The Court should review Colorado’s law under a rational-basis standard, but it satisfies any level of scrutiny,” the state wrote in its brief.
