Advocates React As Trans Female Athletes Are Banned From Public School, College Sports

Senate Bill 354, the “Fairness in Women’s Sports Act” was signed into law by Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson last week. The new law bars transgender women and girls from participating in publicly-funded school and college sports. We get reaction from both the Human Rights Campaign and ACLU of Arkansas for reaction and discuss the potentially consequences of the legislation.
