B.P.J. and Little v. Hecox : “Today’s decision is a setback for LGBTQ+ Americans and another cruel step in President Trump’s Supreme Court targeting transgender people. This ruling allowing state bans targets a small group of people and sends a message that transgender students do not belong, increasing the risk of harassment and bullying. “I have been clear that I oppose efforts like Colorado Ballot Initiative 109, which aims to ban transgender students from participating in sports that align with their gender identity. I will continue to fight to ensure every Coloradan feels safe, respected, and included in school life, regardless of how they identify.” ### Contact Info 261 Russell Senate Building Washington, DC 20510 Phone: 202-224-5852 Fax: 202-228-5097 View State Offices Resources Write to Michael Get Help with a Federal Agency Visiting DC Investing in Colorado Map ©2026 U.S. Senate.
