I don't think she realizes how Title IX works...
12. Stay with me to keep up to date about transgender legislation, rulings, cultural issues, and more. Please subscribe to support my journalism at erininthemorning.com/subscribe.
11. This decision is the latest in a web of legal battles concerning trans people. Earlier this week, the 4th Circuit also ruled Title IX protects trans students. On the other side, the Supreme Court narrowed a ruling, but not on the constitutionality of care itself.
10. It seems likely that this ruling will be used to challenge gender affirming care bans in West Virginia and North Carolina, which are under the Circuit Court's jurisdiction. And this week, South Carolina is hearing a similar ban.
9. This case will have national impacts and states recognize that. 21 Republican States filed an Amicus Brief supporting discrimination towards trans healthcare. 17 Democratic states filed briefs against.
8. Ultimately, the court ruled exclusions on trans care violate Equal Protection, and the West Virginia Medicaid Program violates the Medicaid Act and the anti-discrimination provisions of the ACA.
7. The court also rebuked recent arguments that Bostock applies only to "limited Title VII employment claims," a favorite argument of the far right on trans issues.
6. In particular, they point out how ridiculous the idea is that by just using proxies, you could get around anti-discrimination laws... so for instance, using "XX" or "XY" as a proxy to allow for sex discrimination laws because you don't use "male" or "female"
5. They respond: “gender dysphoria is so intimately related to transgender status as to be virtually indistinguishable from it. The excluded treatments aim at addressing incongruity between sex assigned at birth and gender identity, the very heart of transgender status.”
4. Of particular note was a section on Geduldig that seemed laser targeted towards an eventual supreme court decision. Other courts have used this old ruling, which states that pregnancy discrimination isn't sex discrimination, to say trans care discrimination is not either.
3. Attorneys for the state argued that the policies were not discriminatory because the exclusions for trans care "apply to everyone, not just trans people." Judges rebuked this idea, citing older arguments that a ban on gay marriage "applied to everyone, gay and straight."
2. The ruling, which was decided on by the entire 4th Circuit Court, says that transgender people are a protected class and that trans discrimination is sex discrimination, overturning State coverage bans. Read my latest article here: erininthemorning.com/p/4th-circuit-…
1. In a landmark ruling, the United States 4th Circuit Court of Appeals rules "gender identity is a protected characteristic," and that state coverage bans on trans care are unconstitutional. This will have far-reaching impacts. Subscribe to support my journalism. Let's dig in.

Jason Miller has tweeted every month since 2019 that Hillary Clinton is running for president. He can’t stop thinking about her.
No one mishandled the pandemic more than Trump. No one. The loss of jobs, let alone loss of lives, are on him.
PELOSI: Trump has the worst record of jobs loss of any president KATY TUR: There was a global pandemic PELOSI: He had the worst record of any president. If you want to be an apologist for Donald Trump, that may be your role
This is a great ruling. It also creates a circuit split that will lead SCOTUS to intervene.
1. In a landmark ruling, the United States 4th Circuit Court of Appeals rules "gender identity is a protected characteristic," and that state coverage bans on trans care are unconstitutional. This will have far-reaching impacts. Subscribe to support my journalism. Let's dig in.

11. This decision is the latest in a web of legal battles concerning trans people. Earlier this week, the 4th Circuit also ruled Title IX protects trans students. On the other side, the Supreme Court narrowed a ruling, but not on the constitutionality of care itself.
10. It seems likely that this ruling will be used to challenge gender affirming care bans in West Virginia and North Carolina, which are under the Circuit Court's jurisdiction. And this week, South Carolina is hearing a similar ban.
9. This case will have national impacts and states recognize that. 21 Republican States filed an Amicus Brief supporting discrimination towards trans healthcare. 17 Democratic states filed briefs against.
8. Ultimately, the court ruled exclusions on trans care violate Equal Protection, and the West Virginia Medicaid Program violates the Medicaid Act and the anti-discrimination provisions of the ACA.
7. The court also rebuked recent arguments that Bostock applies only to "limited Title VII employment claims," a favorite argument of the far right on trans issues.
6. In particular, they point out how ridiculous the idea is that by just using proxies, you could get around anti-discrimination laws... so for instance, using "XX" or "XY" as a proxy to allow for sex discrimination laws because you don't use "male" or "female"
5. They respond: “gender dysphoria is so intimately related to transgender status as to be virtually indistinguishable from it. The excluded treatments aim at addressing incongruity between sex assigned at birth and gender identity, the very heart of transgender status.”
4. Of particular note was a section on Geduldig that seemed laser targeted towards an eventual supreme court decision. Other courts have used this old ruling, which states that pregnancy discrimination isn't sex discrimination, to say trans care discrimination is not either.
3. Attorneys for the state argued that the policies were not discriminatory because the exclusions for trans care "apply to everyone, not just trans people." Judges rebuked this idea, citing older arguments that a ban on gay marriage "applied to everyone, gay and straight."
2. The ruling, which was decided on by the entire 4th Circuit Court, says that transgender people are a protected class and that trans discrimination is sex discrimination, overturning State coverage bans. Read my latest article here: erininthemorning.com/p/4th-circuit-…

Pardon my French, but how the f*ck do you get to Congress not only believing there are 351 countries in the world, but also that *0* of them are majority Hindu or Buddhist?
Glad that all PA State Police will now wear body cameras when deployed in Philadelphia. Proud to have worked with @RepCephas & @RepHarris to help make this happen.
Thank you @PAStatePolice for following through on the promise of implementing body cameras for state troopers in Southeastern PA. It’s a good move for transparency and trust. ⬇️ Read more ⬇️ pahouse.com/PCD/InTheNews/…
