Dem Governor Vetoes Trans Student Bathroom Bill

This week, Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs, a Democrat, vetoed a bill backed by Republicans that would have put requirements in place regarding which bathrooms transgender students can use.

The legislation, Senate Bill 1040, would have required transgender students to use public school bathrooms and locker rooms that align with their biological sex instead of their gender identity. Legislation like this would protect women’s spaces from males who identify as women, which Townhall has covered.

In her veto letter, Hobbs described the bill as “discriminatory” and claimed that it “harms” transgender children.

“Senate Bill 1040 is yet another discriminatory act against LGBTQ+ youth passed by the majority at the state Legislature,” Hobbs wrote in her veto letter. “I will veto every bill that aims to attack and harm children.” (Read more from “Dem Governor Vetoes Trans Student Bathroom Bill” HERE)
