Supreme Court Case on Minors' Medical Rights

A significant Supreme Court case is examining the extent to which states can legislate protections for gender-confused minors. Tennessee's law restricting access to cross-sex hormones and surgical procedures for minors faces challenges from the ACLU and affected families, who argue it infringes on rights. This case poses critical questions about the balance between parental rights and state regulation, igniting debates surrounding the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. The outcome could set a precedent that affects similar laws across the country, highlighting the deep societal divisions on the issue.
