Trans rights are still under threat in the United States. Here's a thread of today's updates. 🧵
Kansas introduced HB484, a bill which would mandate that school athletics be divided based on "biological sex". "Males" would then be banned from participating on "female teams". The bill does not specify how these categories are to be defined or determined.
South Carolina HB4608 got additional sponsors. This bill would mandate that school athletics be divided by "biological sex" as determined by genitals, genetics and testosterone levels. It then bars "males" from "female sports". This places a selective cost on girls athletics.
Iowa HF2309 was scheduled to have a hearing today but the hearing was cancelled. This bill also mandates that school athletics be divided based on "biological sex" and then bars "males" from participating in "female sports". It defines "biological sex" based on an unchanged BC.
Alabama HB322 was introduced and referred to the Education Policy Committee. This bill would require that bathrooms only be used based on "biological sex", as defined by sex on one's birth certificate.
Oklahoma SB1249 had a hearing today. This bill is a bathroom bill that would require people to only use the restroom based on their sex assigned at birth.
It's not too late to stop these and other hateful bills. Please go to transformationsproject.org to learn more about bills in your state and to contact your representatives to #StepUpForTransKids!
