US appeals court rejects challenge to #Washington laws concerning #transgender minors

A federal appeals court on Friday rejected a constitutional challenge to 3 #WashingtonState laws regulating the rights of minors, particularly those who are transgender.

The #9thCircuit Court of Appeals in #SanFrancisco said 2 national organizations & 5 sets of Washington parents had not demonstrated injuries sufficient to provide #standing to sue.

IANAL, but I think the #9thCircuit judges were too casual in conflating #California law that allows the effective leader of the National Guard to "issue all orders in the name of the Governor" with the federal statute requiring the federalization of the National Guard to "go through the Governor".

The former presupposes the National Guard is operating under the powers of the Governor, which is not in keeping with the latter where it bypasses the Governor.

Continued thread

The decision halts a ruling from Judge Breyer, who found #Trump acted illegally when he activated the #NationalGuard over opposition from #California Gov #GavinNewsom.

The #9thCircuit court of appeals concluded that “it is likely that the President lawfully exercised his statutory authority”.

It also found that even if the #federal govt failed to notify the Newsom before federalizing the National Guard as required by #law, Newsom had no power to veto the president’s order.

#Trump can keep #NationalGuard deployed to #LosAngeles for now, appeals court rules

US appeals court late Thurs allowed Trump to maintain his deployment of National Guard #troops in #LA amid #protests over aggressive #immigration enforcement, temporarily pausing a lower court's ruling blocking the mobilization.
The #9thCircuit Court of Appeals' decision does not mean the court will ultimately agree w/Trump, but it means he will maintain command of the guard for now.

A federal appeals court Wednesday evening declined the #Trump admin’s request to partially revive the president’s #ExecutiveOrder restricting #BirthrightCitizenship.

The #DOJ asked the #9thCircuit Court of Appeals to immediately limit a district judge’s ruling, one of multiple indefinitely blocking Trump’s order nationwide, to only the individual plaintiffs who sued in an underlying case.

Opinion: Reopening Uber’s challenge to California labor law is just the beginning

"In a stunning decision Friday that departs from nearly 90 years of Supreme Court decisions, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has allowed a constitutional challenge to Assembly Bill 5, the 2019 California law meant to protect low-wage workers."
