Riley Gaines to appeal ruling in NCAA transgender athlete lawsuit
Original: "Riley Gaines promises to appeal the decision because she wants the Supreme Court to rule again on trans athletic" 🏳️🌈
A US judge has thrown out Riley Gaines' lawsuit against the NCAA over transgender athletes' participation in women's college sports. Gaines, a former Kentucky swimmer who has become a leading opponent of trans inclusion in women's athletics, says she will appeal because she wants the Supreme Court to rule again on the issue of transgender athletes.
Why now: The lawsuit's dismissal and Gaines' pledge to push the issue toward the Supreme Court reopens a heated US debate over transgender athletes in women's sports.
