You(th) Decide to Focus on Transgender Care for Equal Protection Case

Does the Equal Protection Clause prohibit a state from banning health-care providers from delivering puberty blockers and hormones to facilitate a minor’s transition to another sex?

This is the question asked in United States v. Skrmetti, the case many high school students will discuss in the upcoming program, You(th) Decide on February 21, 2025 at the Conviser Law Center in Chicago. 

You(th) Decide is a forum for high school students in Chicago and the Metropolitan area to explore and deliberate on a pending case before the Supreme Court of the United States. Facilitated by Constitutional Democracy Project staff and the Institute on the Supreme Court of the United States (ISCOTUS), You(th) Decide asks students to study a pending case before the Court and to convene for a day of deliberation with peers, law students, and law professors. Prior to the conference, students are asked to submit a response to one of three questions prepared by a constitutional law professor. Their response is submitted to a law student for their input prior to attending the forum.  REGISTER HERE
