A former Indianapolis Public Schools student who sued the school district and state over a ban that targets transgender athletes has dropped the case, according to court documents filed on Thursday.
The law went into effect July 1, 2022, but a federal judge later that same month issued a preliminary injunction that declared that IPS must allow A.M. to rejoin her softball team. The judge wrote in her preliminary injunction ruling that A.M. had a likelihood of succeeding in the claim that the law violates her civil rights.The ACLU of Indiana said in a statement on Thursday that even though they agreed to the dismissal, they still view the law as discriminatory.
The ACLU continued to say that if another transgender student in Indiana is being prevented from participating on a public school sports team, that student should reach out to them. “Biological distinction in sports is not just common sense, it is necessary to ensure girls can continue to play the sports they love on a fair and level playing field,” said ADF legal counsel Rachel Csutoros. “Indiana joins a growing coalition of states that has enacted laws to preserve fair competition for female athletes.”
Trans people need help. They are looking for something but don't know what it is. That something is Jesus. That being said, males should compete against other males, not females. Title IX is laying on the ground quivering.
It’s so great to see this student being welcomed with open arms at a charter school.
