Let Kids Play: Tell Congress Not to Ban Transgender Students from School Sports
Status: Pending
Transgender kids, like other students, deserve the same chances to learn teamwork, sportsmanship, leadership, and self-discipline, and to build a sense of belonging with their peers.
HR 734 would ban transgender and intersex youth from playing on school sports teams, taking away the important social and health benefits, and the opportunities to build skills like teamwork, cooperation, and leadership we know kids get from playing sports.
The House passed the bill on April 20, 2023. We urge the Senate to stop this unnecessary and unprincipled measure in its tracks.
Tell your Senator to vote NO on this discriminatory bill.
