At least two cheers for the Ninth Circuit. Its opinion on the legality of states separating their school bathrooms, locker rooms, and showers by sex puts it (less thoroughly, but clearly) on the right side of the entrenched Circuit split over the correct reading of Title IX (effectively with the 11th Circuit, against the 4th and 7th Circuits).
In U.S. v. Skrmetti, the Biden Administration would have the Court declare that the Equal Protection Clause prevents states from protecting children from potentially harmful medical interventions, when those interventions are related to children’s purported “gender identities.” In the brief we filed today, we explain that this is wrong, regardless of what the Court decides a potentially ephemeral “gender identity” at odds with one’s biological sex legally is and–as a result of the answer to that question–the level of scrutiny it applies to this statutory challenge based on it.
