Plessy's legal team argued that Louisiana's Separate Car Act violated the 13th and 14th Amendments of the Constitution by promoting racial segregation on public transportation, which they believed created unequal treatment under the law. They argued that segregation perpetuated stigma and inequality, rather than promoting equality as intended.
