Why it matters

The case affects transgender students, other girls seeking to participate in school sports, and Washington schools that may have to apply the initiative. The lawsuit’s claims about privacy and discrimination have not been resolved by a court.

What happens next

The legal challenge was filed Monday, according to the Washington State Standard. The articles do not say when a court will rule or whether the initiative will be blocked while the case proceeds.
