Governor Gavin Newsom's office stated that a Supreme Court ruling on trans athletes in women's sports will not change California's current laws or policies. California's existing statute allows transgender students to participate in school sports consistent with their gender identity. The governor's office did not specify which Supreme Court ruling was being referenced or provide additional details on how the state intends to proceed.
