“After five years, Idaho’s law protecting female sports has finally reached the United States Supreme Court. Now the [American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) which is representing Hecox] wants to abandon the case because they know the strength of our argument. But the legal arguments of a male athlete do not change the facts: Idaho girls can still be forced to compete with boys, “Labrador told PK Press Club Digital.
“It is not fair, it is not certain, and it strips young women of equal opportunities. We urge the court to affirm that states have the power to preserve and protect female sports.”
The little v. Hecox The trial was initially filed By Hecox in 2020, when the Trans athlete wanted to join the female cross-country team and have the law of the state to prevent Trans athletes from participating in blocked female sports.
Hecox was joined by an anonymous biological student, Jane Doe, who was concerned about the potential of being subject to the process of verification of sexual disputes. The challenge was successful because a federal judge blocked the law of the state of Idaho.
A 9th American appeal circuit committee confirmed an injunction blocking state law in 2023, before the Supreme Court agreed to hear the case in July. Hecox then asked Scotus earlier this month to abandon the challenge, claiming that the athlete “therefore decided to retire permanently and refrain from practicing female sports at the BSU or in Idaho”.
But now, Labrador and Waggoner argue that Hecox’s attempt to reject the case is prohibited by the suspension of all the procedures that Hecox had previously accepted. Defense lawyers also argue that Hecox still has an interest in preserving the decision below to keep the option of practicing female sports.
“This affair is not theoretical simply because Hecox claims to have decided not to practice female sports,” said the answer.

In the end, the defense in this case is looking for a more important result than simply if Hecox can practice female sports.
Labrador Previously, he hoped that the Supreme Court made a decision with a broader impact than leaving a state to conclude its own specific law on the issue. He wants a new national precedent. “I think that’s what they are going to do,” Labrador previously told PK Press Club Digital in an exclusive interview.
“I think they will have a big decision on the question of whether men can participate in female sports, and more importantly, how to determine whether transgender people are protected by federal constitutions and federal and federal laws.”
The general prosecutors of 27 states and the American territory of Guam have signed Amicus Memoirs to support the defense in the next case of Scotus.
AGS d’Arkansas, Alabama, Alaska, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Dakota from North, Ohio, Ohio Oklahoma, Texas, South Carolina, Texas, Texas, Virginia, South Carolina, Dakota Sout and Wyoming and the American territory of Guam all launch their support behind the defendants, as we see in the copies of the Memoirs obtained by PK Press Club Digital.
The list includes AGs of Idaho and Virginia-Western signed only the Memoirs for the case which is not based in their state, because they are already a defendant in the case within their state.
“At the heart of these cases is a fundamental question: can states maintain laws that preserve equity and opportunities for female athletes? The answer must be yes. Through the country, girls and women are again invited to overcome the structural drawbacks that title IX has been designed to eliminate.
“We must protect these opportunities because the law, science and the will of the public are on our side. We believe that the court will be too.”
PK Press Club Digital contacted Hecox lawyers for an answer.
