Hallelujah, praise the Lord, SANITY won at the Supreme Court!  

Your support made this win possible!

The biological male known as ”Becky” Pepper-Jackson may not steal any more Title IX girls’ or women’s sports titles. Neither can the biological male who calls himself “Lindsay” Hecox or any other male use the larger lungs, denser bones, and muscles God gave them at birth to unfairly compete against girls and women.

And that’s all thanks to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling just announced in West Virginia v. BPJ and Hecox v. Little.

Liberty Counsel briefed this case, and we are thrilled to have our 42nd win on cases we have argued or briefed before the High Court. But more importantly, we are overwhelmed with joy for the girls and women who will no longer be forced to forfeit their titles, scholarships, and privacy to men who keep trying to invade their competitions.

But to keep winning on behalf of girls and women, life, religious liberty, and the natural family, we need your direct financial support.

“Becky” Pepper-Jackson won his school district’s girls track and field championship before the State of West Virginia banned boys from girls' sports. So, Mr. Pepper-Jackson sued West Virginia.

Idaho’s laws barred “Lindsay” Hecox from competing on the women’s university cross-country team. So, Mr. Hecox sued the State of Idaho. 

The Fourth and Ninth Circuit Courts of Appeals allowed these young men to keep competing in girls’ sports. As a result, Pepper-Jackson won the West Virginia girls’ state track and field title this spring, doing so before the Court announced its ruling.

It will be the last girls’ title Mr. Pepper-Jackson will ever steal from a biological female.

The young man known as “Lindsay” Hecox demanded to be allowed to compete in Idaho’s intercollegiate women's sports. He, too, along with any other man, will be forced to compete against their own biological gender, thanks to the Supreme Court’s ruling.

As the transgenderism fad spread like a cancer across America, so did the number of biological boys entering and winning girls’ and women’s competitions. Biological females not only lost titles and scholarships, but they also lost their dignity, being forced to share locker rooms and showers with these males. And too many girls wound up severely injured after being forced to compete against the boys and men whose bodies, since birth, are stronger than women’s.

To protect girls, women, and the entire purpose of Title IX sports, states and sports competitions began banning biological males from girls’ and women’s competitions. Twenty-seven states — as well as the International Olympic Committee, the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee, and the NCAA — have banned all biological males from competing in women’s and girls’ sports.

Mr. Pepper-Jackson and Mr. Hecox decided to sue, and with the ACLU’s help, brought this case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Meanwhile, Mr. Pepper-Jackson kept stealing girls’ titles.

Help us keep fighting for what’s right with your gift today!

On Tuesday, June 30, the Supreme Court released its ruling. The Court decreed that states do, in fact, have the ability and right to ban boys and men from girls’ and women’s competitions under Title IX and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. In the opinion for the majority, Justice Kavanaugh wrote:

Separate sports teams for biological males and biological females are reasonable: Given the inherent physical differences between the sexes, allowing only biological females to play on women’s and girls’ teams can reduce the risk of physical injury and ensure fair competition. ...  

... The States’ interests in ensuring safety and competitive fairness amply justify the States in maintaining women’s and girls’ sports for biological females. Under the Equal Protection Clause, therefore, schools may determine eligibility for women’s and girls’ sports based on biological sex.

Liberty Counsel has now won 42 U.S. Supreme Court cases we have argued or briefed since 1989, and thousands more cases in the lower courts. We never charge our clients because we understand that few, if any, could afford to fight all the way to the highest Court in the land. Instead, our clients rely on you, the faithful Liberty Counsel supporter, to ensure life, religious liberty, and the natural family are preserved and protected.

Please help us continue this winning work with a generous single donation, or even a modest recurring monthly donation, and a special Challenge Grant will DOUBLE your impact.

Finally, please pray for the men and women who have been deceived by the “queer” movement and the highly profitable “trans care” medical industry.
