W est Virginia attorney general Patrick Morrisey has filed a suit in support of the five middle-school girls who were banned from an upcoming track event after they forfeited a shot put competition against a biological male.

Five West Virginia middle-school track athletes who protested the participation of a transgender student in a recent competition have been barred from future meets and are now engaged in a legal battle with their school district that could end up at the Supreme Court.

Five middle school girls who say they were benched from competition for objecting to a transgender competitor can race again, a West Virginia judge has ruled.

The protest against trans middle school athlete Becky Pepper-Jackson heads into court for reasons procedural and seemingly political. The post Middle school track protest against a trans athlete becomes a lawsuit in West Virginia – here’s what’s next appeared first on Outsports.
