Kentucky’s Democrat governor vetoes bill banning male-born athletes from female sports


bigstock The Declaration of Independenc 99947918(Worthy News) – Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear vetoed Wednesday legislation barring male-born athletes from female scholastic sports, setting up the possibility of an override in the Republican-controlled state legislature.

The Democrat Beshear described the bill as discriminatory and unnecessary, saying it would “ban transgender children from participating in girls’ and women’s sports without presenting a single instance in Kentucky of a child gaining a competitive advantage as a result of sex reassignment.”

Senate Bill 83 would prohibit male-born athletes from competing in female sports in grades 6-12 and college, with the student’s sex determined by the original, unaltered birth certificate or an affidavit from the medical professional conducting the annual sports physical.
