U.S. Supreme Court to Hear Women’s Sports Cases

Our friends at Alliance Defending Freedom announced today the Supreme Court of the United States will take up cases surrounding women's sports, including a case from the State of West Virginia.

In State of West Virginia v. B.P.J., West Virginia Attorney General JB McCuskey, supported by ADF attorneys who serve as co-counsel and also as counsel to former college soccer player Lainey Armistead, asked the Supreme Court to hear their case after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit ruled against West Virginia’s law protecting fairness in women’s sports.

“It’s a great day, as female athletes in West Virginia will have their voices heard,” McCuskey said. “The people of West Virginia know that it’s unfair to let male athletes compete against women; that’s why we passed this commonsense law preserving women’s sports for women. We are confident the Supreme Court will uphold the Save Women’s Sports Act because it complies with the U.S. Constitution and complies with Title IX. And most importantly: It protects women and girls by ensuring the playing field is safe and fair.”

We commend AG McCuskey for taking this bold action to protect women's sports.
