Two Democratic States May Ban Trans Girls in Sports

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorCould two reliably Democratic states, Colorado and Washington, be about to ban transgender girls from girls' sports?

2. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorActivists went around lawmakers and put it on both ballots.

3. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorColorado's is Proposition 134. The backers gathered more than a hundred sixty-eight thousand signatures and needed a hundred twenty-four thousand, so that's tidy work.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAnd Washington would have a doctor verify every girl's sex assigned at birth before she plays K-12 sports.

5. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorEvery girl.

6. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNow, the state's high school sports body, as The 19th reports, knows of about ten trans students. Ten. Out of more than two hundred thousand who compete.

7. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorTen?

8. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSupporters would call that a proactive framework, and I'd say a doctor's appointment for two hundred thousand is simply being thorough.

9. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorColorado needs fifty-five percent to pass, since it changes the constitution. They cleared the signature bar easily. It was the low one.

10. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorVerdict: mildly worried, mostly about the paperwork. And we're back same time tomorrow.

11. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorTen students, Vera. The ballot is bigger than the roster.
