[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
The NCAA did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the bill's passage or whether it would take action as a result. The college athletics organization last month adopted a sport-by-sport approach for transgender athletes, allowing each sport's national governing body to determine its policy on transgender participation. The nine other states that have signed legislation banning transgender female athletes from participating in women's sports teams are Arkansas, Alabama, Texas, Idaho, Mississippi, Montana, West Virginia, and Tennessee. Other states including Kentucky, Connecticut, Michigan, Pennsylvania have had similar bills proposed, however they are not expected to advance. Bills in New Mexico and News Hampshire had previously failed before they could even be debated.
