The US Supreme Court heard oral arguments on a Tennessee law that bans healthcare providers from providing transgender minors with puberty blockers, hormone therapy, or surgery if it conflicts with their sex at birth. The case will determine if the law violates the 14th amendment of the US Constitution, which guarantees equal protection of law. Critics argue that the law discriminates against transgender individuals based on their sex. The outcome of this case will have significant implications for transgender youth, their families, medical providers, and other laws across the country.
