US appeals court rejects challenge to #Washington laws concerning #transgender minors

A federal appeals court on Friday rejected a constitutional challenge to 3 #WashingtonState laws regulating the rights of minors, particularly those who are transgender.

The #9thCircuit Court of Appeals in #SanFrancisco said 2 national organizations & 5 sets of Washington parents had not demonstrated injuries sufficient to provide #standing to sue.

Continued thread

The decision halts a ruling from Judge Breyer, who found #Trump acted illegally when he activated the #NationalGuard over opposition from #California Gov #GavinNewsom.

The #9thCircuit court of appeals concluded that “it is likely that the President lawfully exercised his statutory authority”.

It also found that even if the #federal govt failed to notify the Newsom before federalizing the National Guard as required by #law, Newsom had no power to veto the president’s order.

#Trump can keep #NationalGuard deployed to #LosAngeles for now, appeals court rules

US appeals court late Thurs allowed Trump to maintain his deployment of National Guard #troops in #LA amid #protests over aggressive #immigration enforcement, temporarily pausing a lower court's ruling blocking the mobilization.
The #9thCircuit Court of Appeals' decision does not mean the court will ultimately agree w/Trump, but it means he will maintain command of the guard for now.

A federal appeals court Wednesday evening declined the #Trump admin’s request to partially revive the president’s #ExecutiveOrder restricting #BirthrightCitizenship.

The #DOJ asked the #9thCircuit Court of Appeals to immediately limit a district judge’s ruling, one of multiple indefinitely blocking Trump’s order nationwide, to only the individual plaintiffs who sued in an underlying case.
