A Minnesota appeals court has affirmed that banning transgender «women» from competing as a woman in sports is a violation of Minnesota law.
The Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled Monday that a ban on a transgender weightlifter implemented by USA Powerlifting (USAPL) would be illegal in the state, KARE-TV reported.
In its ruling, the court sent back a case to a lower court instructing the court to determine if transgender powerlifter JayCee Cooper was banned from competing in the weightlifting organization because he is a man seeking to compete as a transgender woman.
Cooper brought his lawsuit to Minnesota in 2021 and won his case against USAPL last year when a Minn. court ruled in his favor.
«Marsha P. Johnson, and the Stonewall riots, and the plethora of Black trans advocates and activists throughout history—and the way they’ve led this fight—I am just one small piece that is built off of that,» says @JayCeeIsAlive ???? https://t.
