Two Republicans joined Democrats in blocking legislation that would have stopped transgender athletes from competing in girls’ sports in K-12 schools in Nebraska.
Oddly, two Nebraska state senators who initially cosponsored LB575, state Sen. Merv Riepe and state Sen. Tom Brandt , did not vote. Nebraska state Sen. Megan Hunt , meanwhile, argued that the legislation protecting girls’ sports is simply an expression of “discrimination” and “hate,” and called Kauth a “bigot.”
Kauth argued the legislation didn’t stop anyone from participating in sports, saying, “Kids who are identifying as trans still have the same opportunity to compete as everybody else, but they need to do so on the on the same terms as everyone else, as members of their biological sex.”
