Pennsylvania House approves bill that would ban transgender athletes from playing women's sports
Legislation that would prohibit transgender women from competing on female sports teams in Pennsylvania took a step forward Tuesday when the state House of Representatives approved the measure. The Republican-sponsored bill passed the House largely along party lines by a vote of 115-84. The legislation, formally known as the "Fairness in Women's Sports Act," will now head to the Senate for consideration. But Gov. Tom Wolf, a Democrat, previously vowed to veto the measure if it reaches his desk. The bill would require public schools and colleges to designate their sports teams, including intramural and club teams, as male, female or coed based on biological sex.
