This will be a crucial case for our community.  If the Court decides that Title VII doesn't apply to trans workers,  we would have to rely on a reluctant Congress to change the law, or the states to step in to protect us in the workplace.  A bad decision will effect us, possibly, for generations.

I think I am a little more concerned that they will pull another Colorado vs Cake Baker and sidestep the Trans issues altogether thereby putting us back to GO on the board.  It will not prevent Congress or the States from acting. but it does let the SCOTUS jump off the ship for a while.  Lets face it , that is how the Supreme Court got in the business of judicial review.  The revered case of Marbury vs. Madison boils down to CJ John Marshall ducking out of responsibility for something he fouled up on as Secretary of State the day before he was appointed to the SC.

I am concerned as well.  I find it odd that in the "land of the free" we have sanctioned discrimination of any sort.
