Judge throws out attempt to repeal trans anti-bullying policy in Ohio

A US federal judge has thrown out a lawsuit attempting to repeal Ohio anti-bullying policies that protect transgender students, in a much-needed win for LGBTQ+ rights.

US district chief judge Algenon Marbley slapped down a legal complaint from the right-wing advocacy group Parents Defending Education (PDE) that was attempting to rescind anti-bullying policies in the Olentangy Local School District.
