Apple Inc., PayPal Holdings Inc., EBay Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Salesforce.com Inc. are among the technology companies that are backing transgender rights by joining a friend-of-the-court brief in a U.S. Supreme Court case regarding bathroom access.
The move follows opposition from tech companies to a decision this week by President Donald Trump to rescind protections for transgender students. The administration on Wednesday announced the withdrawal of legal guidance put in place by the Obama administration in May that directed schools to let transgender students use bathrooms consistent with their own gender identity.
