Newsom's office responds to SCOTUS ruling on women's sports as California faces ongoing trans athlete wave

California Gov. Gavin Newsom's office has responded after the U.S. Supreme Court made a historic ruling on trans athletes in women's sports on Tuesday.

The court ruled 6-3 to uphold state laws that protect women's sports from biological male trans athletes. California is one of 23 states in the country that don't have laws to protect women's sports, and since 2014, has had a law in place to protect the rights of males to compete against females.

A spokesperson for Newsom's office said the Supreme Court ruling will not impact California's current setup.
