  • JayCee Cooper filed a lawsuit against USA Powerlifting after the organization banned her from participating in women's competitions.

The Minnesota Supreme Court has ruled in favor of JayCee Cooper, a transgender woman, allowing her to continue participating in women's powerlifting competitions. This decision upholds a previous ruling by the Minnesota Court of Appeals, which found that the USA Powerlifting's policy of banning transgender women from competing in the women's division was discriminatory. The case stemmed from a lawsuit filed by Cooper against USA Powerlifting for denying her the right to compete based on her gender identity. The Supreme Court's decision reinforces that such exclusionary policies violate the Minnesota Human Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. This ruling sets a precedent for transgender athletes' rights in Minnesota and potentially influences similar cases nationwide.
