The US supreme court on Thursday refused to let West Virginia enforce a state law banning transgender athletes from female sports teams at public schools, one of many Republican-backed measures across the country targeting LGBTQ+ rights.

Two conservative justices, Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, publicly dissented from the decision.
