On June 30, 2026, the United States Supreme Court upheld state laws banning transgender women from participating in women's school and college sports. The ruling specifically supported legislation from Idaho and West Virginia, which allows these bans based on the assertion that allowing transgender athletes to compete in women's teams creates an uneven playing field.
