Today, July 1, two state laws are going into effect that target medication abortion. These attack one of the most accessible abortion options post-Dobbs for people living in restricted states, who cannot travel, or for whatever reason want a medication abortion.
Every day we see another effort to deny trans people control over their own bodies, identities, and lives. It's the same playbook for banning abortion and policing pregnant people. We will continue to fight for the freedom of all of us to be ourselves without fear or political interference.
ACLU@aclu.org · last mo.BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled that states can ban transgender girls from school sports. This is a devastating ruling for trans students across the country who simply want the freedom to play with their friends.
It's going to end up being a surveillance state that requires severe privacy risks for girls to participate in sports going forward including invasive genetic testing and physical examinations.
This case has major implications for bodily autonomy and civil rights. 🧵:
NEW: In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that state laws barring transgender girls from participating on school sports teams that align with their gender identity do not violate the Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court in a 6-3 vote UPHOLDS birthright citizenship, affirming the default rule that all persons born in the United States (with narrow exceptions) are U.S. citizens at birth. A total LOSS for President Trump and the effort to rewrite the 14th Amendment.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 ruling, holds that federal coordinated party expenditure campaign-finance limits violate the First Amendment. Kavanaugh has the opinion for the court. Kagan has the dissent, joined by Sotomayor and Jackson. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
supremecourt.gov
Justice Sotomayor is reading from her partial dissent, in which she is joined by Justices Kagan and Jackson. It is a partial dissent because they would have sent the case back for further factual development on the equal protection claim. They agree the laws do not violate Title IX.

![SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES No. 25–365 DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, ET AL., PETITIONERS v. BARBARA, ET AL. ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI BEFORE JUDGMENT TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT [June 30, 2026] JUSTICE KAVANAUGH, concurring in the judgment and dissenting in part. Executive Order No. 14160 establishes new exceptions to birthright citizenship for children born to foreign citizens unlawfully or temporarily in the country. 90 Fed. Reg. 8449 (2025). The Court today holds that the Order violates the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution. I respectfully disagree with the Court’s constitutional holding. In my view, the Executive Order does not violate the Fourteenth Amendment. But the Order does contravene a federal statute, 8 U. S. C. §1401(a). Congress could—consistent with the Fourteenth Amendment—amend §1401(a) or otherwise enact new legislation establishing exceptions to birthright citizenship for children born to foreign citizens unlawfully or temporarily in the country. But Congress has not yet done so.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2vtbmhmrwzbqcfv4we4uxzzt/bafkreihdhg5gakw2x6rtrizjkd73oapvoxcowrnwv63vwj5zkwoqv2iqv4)
