So, in other news: The Trump Department of Justice is arguing to the Supreme Court that businesses can discriminate against transgender employees.

https://news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-report/justice-department-says-transgender-discrimination-is-lawful

Background: A Michigan Funeral Home fired a woman after she told the owner she was transitioning. The EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) successfully argued her case before the Sixth Circuit and won the case that this was against federal law for sex discrimination.

But the DoJ is arguing to SCOTUS that the Sixth Circuit got it wrong and that the law banning sex discrimination doesn't cover transgender bias. ...And the DoJ has the sole authority to represent the government before SCOTUS. They're also asking SCOTUS to take up two other related cases on the issue.
