Georgia Senate votes to ban transgender athletes from school competitions

  • The Republican-controlled Georgia Senate moved to purge transgender athletes from female teams Thursday in a near party-line vote. Senate Bill 1 would prohibit public school and state college students from competing on teams that do not match the sex on their birth certificates.

The Georgia Senate has passed a bill, with a vote of 33-22, that would ban transgender athletes from participating in school sports teams that align with their gender identity, instead requiring them to compete according to their sex assigned at birth. This legislation, known as Senate Bill 358, aims to ensure what supporters describe as "fair competition" in sports by preventing transgender girls from competing against cisgender girls. The bill has sparked significant debate, with opponents arguing it discriminates against transgender students and could lead to invasive checks to verify an athlete's sex. The bill now moves to the Georgia House for further consideration. Critics, including the ACLU of Georgia, have voiced concerns over the bill's implications for transgender youth, suggesting it could exacerbate mental health issues among this group. Meanwhile, supporters, including some Republican senators, argue it protects the integrity of women's sports.
