CINCINNATI (WXIX) - Ohio House lawmakers late Wednesday passed a bill prohibiting transgender girls from joining female sports teams in schools, state institutions of higher education and private colleges.

It passed with heavy GOP support 56-28 party-line vote in House Bill 151, which replaces the Ohio Teacher Residency Program with a two-year local teacher mentorship program that starts in the 2023-2024 school year.

The version passed late Wednesday now also says this:

"and to enact the Save Women’s Sports Act to require schools, state institutions of higher education, and private colleges to designate separate single-sex teams and sports for each sex.”

The bill also requires:

  • Transgender female athletes to join male or co-ed teams
  • Students to get a signed statement from a doctor verifying their biological sex if it is questioned

Schools that knowingly violate H.B. 151 could face legal action.

Wednesday’s vote came on the first day of Pride Month.

The bill goes next to the Senate for consideration, but that won’t be happening anytime soon.

Ohio's state lawmakers are on Summer Break.

 

good grief 

 

 

Couple of guys win a women’s bike race, then make out on the podium while the third place finisher deals with her child. Completely normal.

Well, I think some of the responses by the progressive leftists here on CVON demonstrate the mental illness part of the tweet

It's disgusting what the state legislature in Ohio passed. It's like Dr. Nassar himself wrote the bill. Gross.

I will never subject my child to an examination like that. Somebody made the point trans athletes were going to ruin women sports... I didn't believe it. Now I see it is Republicans fear of anything queer that will do it. Of course they will blame everybody but themselves.

I've been saying for awhile now, if they want to be truly equal, the fine, just get rid of all gendered divisions in sports together.

It's all good except the part where you leave out a solution to the issue.  It isn't a solution to say "it won't happen that often" which seems to be where you are with this one.

Oh no, not everyone wants to worship rainbow people during their special month! Time to start cancelling!

Solution? I don't find there's a problem. At least where the law is concerned. I think each sport needs to determine what qualifies as an acceptable athlete and go from there.

In this situation "no solution" is better than "your kid ran too fast, show us their genitals". 

it's a physician's note...not showing random people your goods.

Point still stands, kid has to go to someone and get a note proving that they saw their genitals and confirm they're boy or a girl.  Absolutely zero reason for a doctor to tell anyone about a kids privates. Zero way I would do that.

Frankly, I am not sure what doctor is going to agree to perform such a procedure on a child. Especially when there is threat of lawsuits, as the Ohio bill explicitly calls for.

That it's a personal decision between a patient, their family and trained professionals and has absolutely zero relevance as to whether or not  teacher/coaches/the state/ANY outside groups have any right to know the state of a kid's genitals.

There are plenty of examples of problems already.

Doesn't have to be solution by law.  I agree with you there.  If each sport decides that there is no separation based on sex then so be it.  We can just go to different divisions.  Forget having male/female teams.  Personally, I think that would be an inferior setup to what we've had historically but we could go that route.

Sure, but that wasn't my point at all.

To recap:

The personal decision to play a sport and get a note that they do\don't have a dingdong - bad

The personal decision to pump a child with hormone blockers - good

 

Just trying to understand where the line is.
