SANTA FE — Once again in the Roundhouse, it’s unlikely Democratic legislators will let a bill through that would ban transgender women from participating in female sports.
The House Consumer and Public Affairs Committee on Thursday tabled House Bill 185 by a vote of 4-2, along party lines. Bill sponsor Rep. Andrea Reeb, R-Clovis, who also introduced the bill last year, said the move would codify similar actions by President Donald Trump, referring to the executive order he signed earlier this month, titled Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.
