Learning about different people, histories and experiences in school benefits students. It strengthens empathy and a sense of belonging, increases test scores and graduation rates, and betters mental and physical health, brain development and connections to school and community. 3/4

Brian K. Bond, CEO of PFLAG National, about today’s 6-3 Supreme Court decision in Mahmoud v. Taylor

“Today’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court is a heartbreaking one for LGBTQ+ students, families and employees of Montgomery County Public Schools. 1/4
On a pale pink background, a banner at the top reads, “BREAKING NEWS.”. Text below reads, “The U.S. Supreme Court today ruled that not allowing parents to opt their children out of reading storybooks that are part of an LGBTQ+ inclusive literacy curriculum in the Montgomery County Public School system burdened their religious freedom. the Court found that not notifying and allowing parents to opt their children out of this curriculum could not be justified, even by the school’s clear interest in protecting LGBTQ+ students from stigma and isolation.” Below that is a quote from Brian K. Bond, CEO of PFLAG National, which reads, “Today’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court is a heartbreaking one... However, this ruling does not erase what PFLAG parents, students, and educators have long known, and a vast body of research supports: All students benefit from a school climate that promotes inclusion, acceptance, and respect.”

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled Tennessee’s law banning gender-affirming medical care for transgender youth can remain in effect.

This is devastating for trans people and our families but doesn’t end our work against President Trump’s attacks on trans people and our health care.

NEWS: Today, alongside our partners at @aclu.org, we filed a motion in federal court asking the court to enforce its nationwide preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration from restricting funding for providers of gender-affirming medical care to people under 19.
A news graphic with the headline: 'BREAKING NEWS: Families and Doctors Ask Federal Court to Enforce Injunction Blocking Trump Administration’s Anti-Trans Healthcare Policy.' The background features a photograph of multiple hands holding and waving transgender pride flags, which are light blue, pink, and white. A graphic featuring a large quotation mark at the top, followed by a block of white text on a dark blue background. The quote reads: ““These notices are a transparent attempt to coerce medical providers to ignore their best medical judgment and instead follow politically charged edicts from the President, injecting his ideology into the medical lives of thousands of transgender people and their families. The Trump administration is not above the law. Like anyone else, it must abide by and respect federal court orders. We are asking the court to enforce the preliminary injunction and make clear that the Trump Administration cannot threaten medical providers or hospitals’ federal funding for providing necessary gender-affirming medical care while the injunction is in place.” The bottom of the graphic prominently displays 'Lambda Legal + ACLU' in bold text, with 'Joint Statement' underneath. The Lambda Legal logo appears in the lower right corner.
