South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) has advanced a bill in the state legislature that would codify her executive orders limiting transgender athletes to competing only in categories that correspond to their birth gender.
Noem filed the bill on Tuesday to limit K-12 girl’s school sports and state-funded colleges to allowing only natural-born girls to compete in girl’s categories, according to the Argus Leader.

“ The new bill adds that students who suffer harm by violations of the law will be awarded grounds to sue a school district, sports league, or college for such violations”
Only one Noem fan.
““ The new bill adds that students who suffer harm by violations of the law will be awarded grounds to sue a school district, sports league, or college for such violations””
Too bad it took that Pennsylvania guy to FINALLY get her attention.
...so, too late. Should could have been a LEADER, rather than a follower, but instead she chose to trust that CREEPY ‘advisor’.
“birth gender”; interesting terminology, just to check it out I pulled my birth certificate from my files.
I don’t know about yours, but mine says “SEX” MALE, then goes on to list a few other items; like “Mother”, “Father”, “Date”, “Time”, etcetera.
Not a single mention of GENDER in the whole document, but I guess they were all just stupid back in the first half of the twentieth century, right?
My governor had to sign an EO stop wacky non genders on state birth certificates!
Non-binary they call it - AKA too mentally I’ll to know 🤪
You’re the one posting about voting for someone you’re ineligible to vote for unless it’s an election she’s not even running in on a thread about a state bill in SD. 🤪
Not smart
Best thing the girls can do, when they find themselves completing against men is to refuse to complete. Just walk away. That would end this madness very quickly.
IIRC the ncaa made some pretty serious threats about college level sporting events and ND teams. So she backed off at the university level but not at the K12 level. Now she willing to take on the ncaa. Good for her. The ncaa can reek havoc on her states teams. Nice to see her willing to take them on. Letting men ruin women’s sports is not very popular with the people so I think her made a political judgement.
To compete in the Olympics as a female you must have female levels of testosterone. Something no male can do. That rule was put in to stop the E Germans from cheating.
most Freepers are like sheep......they bleet with the rest of the crowd but know next to nothing.
She vetoed a BAD piece of legislation.
The folks of South Dakota love her and thanked her for it.
Stop the bleeding!

Good point. Tip toe through the tulips Kristi is using the language of the left even in this bill. Not. Good. Enough.
Seriously, the SD legislature is senate, 32/35 Republican and house 62/70 Republican. This is way beyond a 2/3rds majority, so if they will stand up, her veto is meaningless.
When did she issue those?
Biological gender may make more sense than "birth gender" since the latter could be manipulated in the documentation.
