"Representative, can you tell me: are you trans?"
"Are you?"
"Because I want to know, how does a 14-year-old girl prove whether or not she's trans to a 50-year-old coach?"
"House Bill 4066 would ban trans girls from women's sports, making eligibility to compete based on "sex" at birth as recorded on a birth certificate."
A tense exchange occurred during committee testimony when an openly gay Democratic representative directly asked a Republican whether he was trans, leaving the Republican momentarily speechless. The Republican replied in turn, and the committee chair interrupted and moved the hearing along. The confrontation highlighted broader debate over two Republican-backed bills targeting transgender youth. Both measures passed the Republican-dominated committee and advanced to the House for further consideration, while Democrats control the state Senate. One bill, House Bill 4066, would ban trans girls from women’s sports by defining eligibility based on sex at birth as recorded on a birth certificate.
