The University of Arizona has spent more than $50,000 defending itself from a lawsuit filed by a professor who claims that she is entitled to gender reassignment surgery under the university healthcare plan.

The University of Arizona has spent $52,386.10 on a lawsuit against one of its own professors. Professor Russell Toomey, a female-to-male transgender person, claims that employees of the university are entitled to gender reassignment surgery under the university’s healthcare plan. The university and the state of Arizona say otherwise.

Toomey’s allies claim that the university could have simply funded Toomey’s gender reassignment surgery with the funds they are using to fight the case. “We wish that the state of Arizona would put its resources toward providing the medically necessary care for transgender employees,” ACLU attorney Molly Brizgys said, “rather than defending this discriminatory and unconstitutional exclusion.”
