“For Tennessee’s Transgender Families, the Court Ruling Was Bitter, but Expected; The state has been a leader in the rollback of L.G.B.T.Q. rights”: Emily Cochrane of The New York Times has this report.

Kelsey Reichmann of Courthouse News Service reports that “Fight over trans rights far from finished at Supreme Court; Transgender advocates and opponents showed no signs of slowing after the justices’ highly anticipated ruling, with both sides seeing fertile ground for future litigation.”
