The decision, written by Justice Gorsuch, upholds protections for gay, lesbian, and transgender employees, with reactions from Trump and Biden allies highlighting the ruling's impact on roughly 8.1 million LGBT workers in the United States. The ruling shapes ongoing debates over LGBT rights, including health care protections and sports participation.
