Supreme Court Blocks California Trans Student Notification Ban in Major Parental Rights Ruling
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on Monday that California cannot prohibit schools from notifying parents when their child seeks to change gender identity at school — a landmark parental rights victory that strikes down one of the most contested education policies in the country.

The ruling arrives as the Trump administration has moved aggressively to roll back gender identity policies across the federal government, and as state legislatures from Ohio to Kansas continue to debate the boundaries of transgender accommodation in schools.
