Appeals court rules against transgender man in bathroom case in Florida
A federal appeals court has ruled that a Florida school district’s policy of separating school bathrooms based on biological sex is constitutional.The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals announced its 7-4 decision on Friday, ruling that the St. Johns County School Board did not discriminate against transgender students based on sex, or violate federal civil rights law by requiring transgender students to use gender-neutral bathrooms or bathrooms matching their biological sex.
The court’s decision was split down party lines, with seven justices appointed by Republican presidents siding with the school district and four justices appointed by Democratic presidents siding with Drew Adams, a former student who sued the district in 2017 because he wasn’t allowed to use the boys restroom.
It's so sad that our judicial system has been invaded by politics. This is a common sense decision but four on the Appellate Court voted against. Incredible.
