The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments on the constitutionality of Tennessee 's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender minors.

The Biden administration, families of transgender adolescents, will appeal to the justices to strike down the Tennessee ban.

The case is not expected to be decided until the spring ; it's possible the new administration could weigh in.

There are prominent names in some of the 83 briefs, an unusually high number, filed on both sides of the case.

Tennis legend Martina Navratilova and Olympic swimming gold medalists Donna de Varona and Summer Sanders are among 135 athletes, coaches, officials and parents who want the justices to uphold the ban on gender-affirming care for transgender minors.
