MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — The Wisconsin State Assembly passes Republican-authored bills related to transgender issues.
Two bills, both authored by Oconomowoc Representative Barbara Dittrich, would ban trans athletes at the high school and college level in Wisconsin.
Another bill authored by Dittrich would require school districts put in policies stating that parents determine names and pronouns of students to be used by school staff.
A fourth bill, authored by Waukesha Representative Scott Allen and Assembly Speak Robin Vos, would ban gender affirming care for those under 18.
All four bills now head to the state Senate. Democratic Governor Tony Evers has already vowed to veto any legislation he says would harm Wisconsin’s LGBTQ+ community.
