JBE vetoes transgender sports bill, calls it 'solution in search of a problem'

Gov. John Bel Edwards on Tuesday vetoed legislation that would have barred transgender girls and women from participating on sports teams that match their gender identity, calling the proposal discriminatory and a "solution in search of a problem that does not exist in Louisiana."
Senate Bill 156, sponsored by Sen. Beth Mizell, R-Franklinton, would have required athletic teams or sporting events for women at public institutions be composed only of "biological females," or those who presumably were listed as female on their birth certificates.
The measure won Senate approval 29-6 and cleared the House 78-19. Those margins are wide enough to override a governor's veto, though it's unclear whether lawmakers will return to Baton Rouge to do so.

Makes zero sense. If there's no problem, then why not sign it anyway just in case?
By not signing it, you are supporting what the bill is attempting to prevent.

I suppose we will find out how many Louisiana legislators have had their balls surgically removed?

His daughters appear to be grown, but I hope he has granddaughters that lose in every sport they play to some tranny.

I know.
Thanks, though. It was a shot at the so-called Republicans who helped elect him instead of voting for Rispone.
Now, look what else they helped do.

He’d just use the Tranny medal ceremony as a photo op to fundraise from LGBTBBQ.

Well, a broken clock is right twice a day...
Really, organizations putting on sporting events should get to decide. The real problem is we have GOVERNMENT running kids sports... anybody want to handle that one and save a TON of money for taxpayers in the process.

A majority of his draconian bullshite over the last 18 months was a solution in search of a problem. Masks on schoolchildren for example.

What else would a democrat do? Get a real job?

It's called being proactive dum dum.
Cant see past the hairs on his nose.
This is their new projection pitch. I heard it regarding CRT laws.

Embarrassing. And even moreso if the don’t go into special session to override the veto.

God’s definitely sending us another destructive hurricane after what JBE did today. I just hope He spares Lake Charles.

Well can the LSU women's soccer team start recruiting biological males then? Might be worth watching.
