Advocacy Action Needed for Trans Athletes

28 Jun 2021 11:04 AM | Anonymous

Contact your state representative and state senator to tell them to stop attacks on trans youth in Ohio. The state legislature attempted late last week to sneak an amendment into an unrelated bill to ban transgender athletes from playing sports by amending HB61 into an otherwise bipartisan bill supporting college athletes. The Senate did not accept the amendment last week but the potential for passing the legislation remains high.  HB61 (and companion, SB132) the so-called "Save Women's Sports Act", seeks to single out transgender young people for increased bullying and harassment by preventing them from participating in the sports they love. This bill will have a devastating effect on transgender athletes. Sports are for everyone, and the Ohio High School Athletic Association and NCAA already have policies in place to ensure that sports are fair and accessible to all. Get more information and send an email to your legislators>>
