Summary

The politicization of transgender children in the U.S. has escalated, with more than half of states banning gender-affirming care for minors since Arkansas passed the first ban in 2021.

Tennessee’s HB1, prohibiting transition-related care while allowing similar treatments for non-transition purposes, faces a Supreme Court challenge led by the ACLU and DOJ.

Conservative justices appear poised to uphold the law, citing states’ rights and physiological differences.

Critics argue the law enforces gender roles and violates the 14th Amendment.
