Minnesota Supreme Court Hears Trans Athlete Case
The Minnesota Supreme Court is set to hear the case of JayCee Cooper, a transgender athlete who alleges discrimination by USA Powerlifting for barring her from competing in the women's division due to her transgender status. The case centers on whether this decision violates the Minnesota Human Rights Act, which protects against discrimination. USA Powerlifting maintains that its policy is not discriminatory but aims to ensure fair competition by considering biological differences impacting strength. In response to such criticism, USA Powerlifting established an open MX division in 2021 for all gender identities. Cooper's legal team argues that the policy unjustly stereotypes transgender women and that discrimination should be determined by motive, rather than perceived fairness. The outcome of this case could have significant implications for sports and transgender rights in Minnesota.
