Lawmakers at the Kentucky House of Representatives have passed a bill that seeks to prevent transgendered individuals from playing in school sports events that do not align with their biological sex.

The bill, SB83, known as the “Save Women’s Sports Act,” argues that any athletic activity or sports designated for “girls” in grades six through 12 shall not be open to members of the male sex.
