Two Republican Governors Veto Bans on Trans Athletes Competing Against Girls

Two Republican governors have vetoed bills in Utah and Indiana that seek to ban trans teens from competing in school sports on girls' teams.

On Monday, Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb vetoed House bill HEA 1041, which not only would have banned trans females from competing on girls teams, but also required schools (including some private schools) and athletic organizations to establish grievance procedures for people to complain, and established an authority for people to sue in civil court for alleged violations. The law included no similar ban on trans males who wished to compete with males or with females.
