On Monday the Arkansas House of Representatives passed S.B. 354.
This good bill by Sen. Missy Irvin (R – Mountain View) and Rep. Sonia Barker (R -Smackover) would prevent male student athletes from competing against girls in women’s athletics. This would protect fairness for girls’ sports at school in Arkansas.
The bill passed by a vote of 75 to 18, with seven state representatives not voting. It has been sent to Gov. Hutchinson to become law.
