Idaho AG calls on SCOTUS to uphold 'common sense' Title IX ruling

Idaho Attorney General Raúl Labrador joins 'Fox & Friends' as the Supreme Court weighs challenges to state bans on transgender athletes in women’s sports.

The Supreme Court is considering whether states can bar transgender athletes from competing on girls and women’s school sports teams, a case some Republican leaders say never should have reached the high court.

Idaho Attorney General Raúl Labrador said the state’s solicitor general is arguing the case before the Supreme Court with his full support. The case centers on laws in Idaho and West Virginia that ban transgender athletes from competing on female sports teams at public schools.

"If anybody 10 years ago would have said that we would be before the U.S. Supreme Court today, arguing whether a male who identifies as a female should have a right to participate in women’s sports, I think most people would think that we were crazy," Labrador said Tuesday on "Fox & Friends."

Labrador has defended his state’s laws and said they uphold the original intent of Title IX to protect the rights and safety of women and girls in sports.

Opponents, however, say the laws fail to account for individual circumstances. Factors such as whether an athlete has taken puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones are not evaluated under the bans.

But Labrador argues the issue comes down to fairness and safety for women and girls who compete.

Opponents of a bill banning transgender athletes from participating in women’s sports react after the measure passed a vote by the Nassau County Legislature in Mineola, N.Y., June 24, 2024.
