Summary
Attorneys with Child & Parental Rights Campaign and Alliance Defending Freedom asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case of a Massachusetts family. They are challenging Ludlow School Committee officials for enacting a gender-identity policy that excludes parents from any knowledge or involvement in key decisions regarding their children’s care, blatantly violating parents’ fundamental right to direct their kids’ upbringing, health care, and education.
In March 2023, ADF attorneys filed a friend-of-the-court brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit in support of parents’ rights. In February, however, the 1st Circuit ruled against the parents, prompting the petition to the Supreme Court.
