4th Circuit rules West Virginia's "Save Women's Sports Act" violates Title IX, allowing 13-year-old transgender girl to participate in girls' sports.

The US Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit has ruled that a 13-year-old transgender middle-schooler in West Virginia cannot be barred from participating in cross-country running and track with other girls. The decision overturns West Virginia's "Save Women's Sports Act" that prohibits transgender girls from playing on girls' sports teams, stating the law violates Title IX, a federal law against sex discrimination in schools.
