Ohio House Republicans Pass Bill To Ban Transgender High School & College Students From Sports

Bill Passed To Ban Transgender High School & College Students From Sports, A Genital Exam Will Be Required For Any Dispute

Ohio House Republicans passed a bill that bans all transgender students from playing high school and college sports, and requires genital exams for any disputes.

What’s crazy is, Representatives voted on House Bill 151 on the first day of Pride Month.

The bill will still need to go through the senate, which will happen after lawmakers return from summer recess. If the bill becomes law, it would take precedence over all current policies by high school and college sports associations.

Under the new law if a player’s sex is disputed, he or she will have to present a physician’s statement about “internal and external reproductive anatomy” and testosterone levels.

Students would also have to show an analysis of genetic makeup.
