Incredible news! The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals has just ruled that Title IX protects transgender people, and that sports bans on transgender people violate the constitution. This is a groundbreaking ruling that will be cited in other cases nationwide!

I am a transgender journalist covering this issue on a daily basis. I am writing up a story on yesterday's Supreme Court ruling right now, and I will likely be covering this ruling as well either later this evening or tomorrow. Watch for my story at erininthemorning.com.
