Federal court protects female athletes, doctors, rejects Biden’s attempt to rewrite federal law
Quote:AMARILLO, Texas – In a victory for female athletes and health care providers, a federal district court rejected the Biden administration’s reinterpretation of the word “sex” to include “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” in federal statutes.
In Neese v. Becerra, two Texas-based physicians are challenging the administration’s mandate in Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act that forces health care professionals to perform harmful medical procedures that seek to alter a patient’s biological sex even if the procedure violates the doctor’s medical judgment or religious beliefs. That mandate depends on Title IX, a federal statute that the administration is also attempting to interpret to require women to compete against men on women’s sports teams. In its ruling Friday, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Amarillo Division, determined that “because Title IX does not protect ‘sexual orientation’ or ‘gender identity’ status, neither does Section 1557.” Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys filed a friend-of-the-court brief in August arguing for the court to protect female athletes by striking down the administration’s rewriting of federal law, which the court did in its ruling.

Excellent, a ruling that indicates basic common sense normalcy.

There's now a court decision that people can refer back to when fighting trans cheaters.

Victory? No.
It just says the current law doesn't protect that crap. That's saying you can add it to the law and it would be legal.
Victory would be affirming natural biological genders can legally be used to classify and separate people regardless of gender identity or biological alterations.

Has any President run afoul of the constitution as often as Joe? Seems like he has something struck down weekly.

I'd bet he'll suspend that inconvenience before his term is completed.
