The Arizona House of Representatives on March 3 passed a bill that if signed into low could see transgender students banned from participating in girls sports at schools across the state.<\/p>\n

The bill, H.B. 2706 (pdf)<\/a>, requires interscholastic or intramural athletic teams or sports sponsored by an educational institution to be \u201cexpressly designated\u201d for \u201cmales, men, or boys;\u201d \u201cfemales, women, or girls;\u201d or \u201cco-ed or mixed sex.\u201d Athletic teams \u201cdesignated for females, women, or girls may not be open to students of the male sex,\u201d under the proposal.<\/p>\n

All public and private schools that sponsor interscholastic and intramural sports would be forced to comply with the bill, also known as the Save Womens Sports Act.<\/a> This includes K-12 schools, community colleges, and universities.<\/p>\n

If the sex of the student is disputed, they may establish it by presenting a signed doctors statement indicating their sex based on an analysis of their genetic makeup.<\/p>\n

The bill, introduced by Rep. Nancy Barto (R-Ariz.) initially required that students get a sworn doctors statement detailing their genetic makeup, \u201cinternal and external reproductive anatomy,\u201d and \u201cnormal endogenously produced levels of testosterone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Opponents of the bill argue that it fails to protect LGBTQ children and transgender youth and leaves them vulnerable to bullying and privacy invasions.<\/p>\n

\u201cTransgender children are being attacked at the will of members of the @AZGOP all because they dont fit in their siloed and antiquated thought process,\u201d Rep. C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez (D-Ariz.) tweeted<\/a> Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe vote tonight was shameful,\u201d Rep. Kirsten Engel (D-Ariz.) tweeted<\/a>. \u201cPolitical points for Republicans at the cost of our most vulnerable kids, our transgender youth. Im not proud of my state today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barto told Save Womens Sports<\/a>, a coalition that seeks to preserve biology-based eligibility standards for participation in female sports, that the bill is not a ban but instead \u201cpreserves a level playing field for girls and women.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said that the bill will enable females to \u201chave available to them the equal opportunity Title IX promised them nearly 50 years ago,\u201d and \u201cit allows all athletes to particRead More \u2013 Source<\/a>
