(SRN NEWS) – The American Civil Liberties Union plans to spend 1.3 million dollars on campaign advertising to defeat candidates for the Montana state Supreme Court who are pro-life or reject the LGBT agenda. The 1.3 million is the most the ACLU has spent on a Montana election. It is also spending money on Supreme Court races in Arizona, Michigan, Ohio and North Carolina. Montana voters are also being asked this year whether they want to enshrine abortion in the state constitution. Several other states have similar ballot measures.
A federal judge says two boys can play on girls school sports teams while the teens challenge a New Hampshire ban. The families of the boys sued in August seeking to overturn the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act that Republican Governor Chris Sununu signed into law in July. In issuing a preliminary injunction, U.S. District Court Chief Judge Landia McCafferty found that the plaintiffs are likely to suffer “irreparable harm” if they are not allowed to play on the girls sports teams. A similar case is playing out in Connecticut.
Delaware has positioned itself to elect the first openly transgender member of Congress in November. State Senator Sarah McBride, a man who is living as a woman, won the Democratic primary for Delaware’s lone seat in the House of Representatives this week. McBride raised almost three million dollars in campaign contributions from LGBT organizations around the country. He achieved national recognition at the 2016 Democratic National Convention as the first openly transgender person to address a major party convention.
A federal appeals court has upheld a lower-court ruling that blocks Arizona from enforcing a 2022 law that bans boys from playing on girls’ school sports teams. A three-judge panel of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with the lower-court that before puberty, there are no significant differences between boys and girls in athletic performance. The case will now be sent back to the lower court, and the law will remain blocked while the case is litigated. Similar court battles are springing up all across the nation.
