Some of President Trump's early executive orders have targeted transgender people. It's both a rights issue and one that raises safety concerns. We look at the impact of what's been done and what is likely to come for this community.

In this One to One interview, Sheryl McCarthy speaks with Red Washburn, Professor of English and Women and Gender Studies at Kingsborough Community College and the CUNY Graduate Center about the state of transgender rights, focusing on issues like sports, healthcare, and recent legal restrictions. Washburn argues that these restrictions are distractions from deeper systemic inequalities and reflect a broader cultural backlash. They emphasize the importance of access to gender-affirming healthcare, especially for transgender youth, and discuss fairness in sports, highlighting the social implications of transgender women's participation. They also explore the growing transgender rights movement and the need for an inclusive society that respects diversity and fairness for all marginalized groups.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.

The first day of President Trump's administration, the outright attacks on the transgender community began. A drove of extreme executive orders has ruthlessly targeted transgender individuals' safety and wellbeing. Chris Geidner, author of Law Dork, sits down to talk with us about these heinous assaults, their already-felt impacts on transgender individuals, and what to expect in the near future.The Trump administration's collection of executive orders includes those that place rigid definitions on the term “sex” and force transgender women in prison to be housed in men's facilities, ban transgender women from competing in women's sports, declare transgender individuals unfit for military service, and prevent transgender children from accessing gender-affirming care. Multiple lawsuits have already arisen that challenge the initial executive order, which largely erases and others the transgender community. Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

In this episode of Passing Judgment, we delve into the Supreme Court's current term with Lindsay Whitehurst from the Associated Press. Jessica Levinson and Lindsay discuss three significant cases: a Tennessee law on transgender minors' access to gender-affirming care (Skirmiti), regulations on ghost guns, and flavored e-cigarettes. They explore the implications of these cases, potential judicial leanings, and the role of presidential administrations in legal arguments.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Transgender Rights in Healthcare: A case involving the access of gender-affirming care for minors, which touches on parental rights and the role of the state in healthcare decisions.Ghost Guns and Federal Regulations: A significant case about the regulation of untraceable homemade firearms and the broader implications for federal agency powers.E-Cigarettes Rules Challenge: The court's review of regulations around flavored vapes, further tying into the authority of administrative bodies.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica@lwhitehurst

Sexual and reproductive health faced unrelenting attacks this year, and the assault will likely only increase in 2025 under the Trump administration. Susan Rinkunas with the Cut, Jezebel, and Vice, and an independent journalist covering abortion and politics, sits down to look back with us on sexual and reproductive health and rights in 2024 and what we can expect in the coming year. 2024 was marked by the attempted redefinition of abortion bans by incoming President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance, extremists using the exact same playbook to attack both abortion and transgender health and rights, the Alabama Supreme Court case that declared frozen embryos as people, and a host of abortion ballot measures around the country. 2025 is likely to bring a Supreme Court justice retirement, loosening abortion clinic buffer zones, a goal to defund Planned Parenthood, and continued attacks to gender-affirming care and birth control. Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Transgender rights have emerged as a key topic in national and state politics, sparking passionate debate on both sides of the aisle. On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell explore how transgender issues, including healthcare and participation in sports, are shaping Georgia's legislative and political landscape. We speak with Dr. Jason Schneider, a metro Atlanta physician who provides gender-affirming care for adults, to gain a better understanding of the medical procedures involved in gender transitioning. Conservative advocate Cole Muzio shares his views on proposed legislation to ban transgender treatments for minors and restrict transgender girls from competing in girls' sports. Finally, Democratic Senator Sally Harrell, the mother of a transgender child, discusses the personal and political dimensions of these issues and offers her perspective on the role transgender rights will play in the state's future.   Links to today's topics: Speaker Jon Burns says he supports measure to ban transgender grils from participating in women's sports Activists urge legislators to abandon focus on transgender youth From the 2023 session: Senate bill bans some care for transgender youth   Have a question or comment for the show?

This Day in Legal History: Alcohol Control Administration CreatedOn December 4, 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the Federal Alcohol Control Administration (FACA) by executive order, a pivotal moment in the transition away from Prohibition. This action came under the National Industrial Recovery Act, as part of Roosevelt's broader New Deal agenda aimed at economic recovery. FACA was designed to regulate the burgeoning alcohol industry, which was reemerging after years of prohibition, ensuring it operated within fair competition guidelines. The administration focused on creating voluntary codes for brewers, distillers, and wineries to prevent monopolistic practices and maintain equitable market conditions.FACA's creation coincided with the formal repeal of Prohibition under the 21st Amendment, which took effect later that month. However, the agency's lifespan was short-lived. By August 1935, it was replaced by the Federal Alcohol Administration (FAA) through new legislation. The FAA consolidated alcohol regulation within the Treasury Department, laying the groundwork for modern alcohol oversight. Today, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), a successor to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), continues to fulfill the regulatory role first envisioned by FACA. The establishment and swift evolution of alcohol regulation reflect the complexities of ending Prohibition and integrating alcohol back into the economy under federal oversight.A federal judge in California dismissed Hunter Biden's tax case but criticized the presidential pardon issued by President Joe Biden. Judge Mark C. Scarsi expressed skepticism about the validity of the pardon, noting that it was supported only by a press release and could be interpreted as covering actions beyond its signing date. He questioned the argument that the charges against Hunter were politically motivated, highlighting that the investigation was conducted under the supervision of the President's own Department of Justice.The judge also pointed out inconsistencies in statements by the President, who claimed his son was treated unfairly compared to others with similar tax issues. However, Hunter Biden had admitted to evading taxes while sober, contrary to claims of addiction-related leniency. Despite these critiques, Scarsi determined that the part of the pardon covering Hunter's past conduct required dismissal of the charges in his Los Angeles tax case. The case underscores the legal and political complexities surrounding Hunter Biden's prosecution and the implications of presidential pardons.Judge Slams Hunter Biden Pardon but Tosses California Tax CaseCoinbase CEO Brian Armstrong issued a warning to law firms that hiring former government officials involved in crypto enforcement could result in losing Coinbase as a client. In a Dec. 2 post, Armstrong criticized Milbank LLP for hiring Gurbir Grewal, the former SEC enforcement director who led numerous actions against crypto companies, including Coinbase. Armstrong called this move a mistake, stating Coinbase would never work with Milbank as long as Grewal was there.Paul Grewal, Coinbase's general counsel, supported Armstrong's stance, emphasizing the importance of holding former government lawyers accountable for their actions while in office. He hoped the statement would spark a broader conversation about the “revolving door” between Washington and private law firms. Armstrong's post aims to influence firms not yet on Coinbase's roster to consider the implications of their hiring choices. At a legal panel, Gurbir Grewal defended his actions at the SEC, denying any bias against the crypto industry but acknowledging frustrations with the agency's strict enforcement. Legal experts noted that public ultimatums like Armstrong's are rare, though private client concerns about hiring conflicts are common. Coinbase continues to navigate regulatory tensions, having been charged by the SEC in June 2023 for operating without proper registration and filing its own legal challenges against the agency.Coinbase CEO Threatens Law Firms Over Government Hires (1)A federal court in Texas has issued a nationwide preliminary injunction blocking the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), which requires U.S. businesses to report their beneficial owners to the Treasury Department. Judge Amos L. Mazzant III ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, including a firearms retailer and the Libertarian Party of Mississippi, who argued that the law exceeded Congress's constitutional authority under the Commerce Clause by targeting all incorporated entities, even those not engaged in commercial activity.The CTA aimed to combat anonymous shell companies and deter financial crimes like money laundering and terrorism financing. However, Judge Mazzant criticized the law as a "quasi-Orwellian statute" that oversteps constitutional limits, asserting that Congress cannot mandate such disclosures solely for law enforcement purposes. He emphasized that the act does not directly regulate commerce, undermining its constitutional basis.The injunction affects an estimated 32.6 million businesses required to comply by 2025. The Justice Department has not yet commented on the ruling. The plaintiffs were represented by S|L Law PLLC and the Center for Individual Rights in the case Texas Top Cop Shop, Inc. v. Garland.Corporate Transparency Act Blocked Nationwide by Texas CourtThe U.S. Supreme Court will hear a pivotal case on the rights of transgender minors, focusing on a Tennessee law that prohibits gender-affirming medical care such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy for those under 18. The Biden administration argues that the law violates the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause by discriminating based on sex and transgender status. This case represents a critical examination of individual rights and the role of government in regulating personal healthcare decisions.Tennessee defends the law as a measure to protect minors from what it calls "risky and unproven" medical treatments, citing international debates and instances of treatment regret. However, major medical associations counter that gender-affirming care is effective and can be life-saving for individuals experiencing gender dysphoria, which is linked to higher suicide rates if untreated.The law has significant consequences for families like that of plaintiff Brian Williams, whose 16-year-old transgender child depends on this care to thrive. Advocates, including the American Civil Liberties Union and Lambda Legal, argue that the law unjustly targets vulnerable youth, while Tennessee officials claim it safeguards children.The Supreme Court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, will decide on the legality of this ban by June. This decision could set a precedent for similar laws in 23 other states, highlighting critical questions about equality and healthcare access for transgender individuals.US Supreme Court set to hear major transgender rights case | Reuters This is a public episode.

Since 2021, at least 177 anti-trans bills have become law across the country. In an effort to understand this trend and its implications, The 19th News published a six part series about trans rights. Today, Errin sits down with The 19th's LGBTQ+ reporters – Kate Sosin and Orion Rummler – to talk about their reporting for this series and what's at stake for all of us, not just trans folks, in this upcoming election.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, we dive into the key cases of the Supreme Court's 2024-2025 term. Jessica Levinson highlights an October 8th case on ghost guns and the ATF's regulatory powers, drawing parallels to a previous bump stock ruling. Additional cases discussed include the FDA's authority over flavored e-cigarettes, a Texas law's First Amendment challenges on adult age verification for online materials, and a lawsuit by the Mexican government against U.S. gun manufacturers. Jessica also previews potential cases related to post-election litigation and federal criminal charges against former President Trump.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:1️⃣ Ghost Guns Case: The Supreme Court will hear a critical case regarding the regulation of ghost guns by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF). The core issue is whether this regulation should be within the executive agency's power or if it requires new congressional legislation.2️⃣ Transgender Rights for Minors: A major case this term focuses on Tennessee's 2023 law prohibiting most gender-affirming medical treatments for minors. This case could set a precedent on how transgender status is viewed under the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause.3️⃣ FDA's Authority on E-Cigarettes: The court will evaluate the power of the FDA in regulating flavored e-cigarette products. The decision hinges on whether the FDA's actions were "arbitrary and capricious" under the Administrative Procedures Act.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

The U.S. Supreme Court begins a new session today.

An increasing number of states are enacting policies hostile to LGBTQ youth, like book bans and restrictions on participation in sports. Even in states like New York where there is greater state-level support for LGBTQ rights, similar policies aimed at stifling those rights have emerged at the local level. Amy Leipziger (Project Director, Free to Be Youth Project), Ashton Hessee (Legal Fellow, Free to Be Youth Project) and Gabriella Larios (Staff Attorney, NYCLU) of the City Bar's LGBTQ Rights Committee unpack the damage to psychological and physical health that these bans and the anti-LGBTQ culture that they promote can have on LGBTQ youth – kids who are navigating the same developmental challenges as their peers while being saddled with these additional burdens. Amy, Ashton and Gabriella also speak to how queer and trans youth – and their parents and caregivers – can understand their rights and understand how to advocate for their rights in school. All three share stories from the frontlines of litigating against these bans, and share insights on the most effective strategies for pairing litigation with grassroots community organizing.
