HF2416 requires that student athletes in public schools, private schools, and universities can only play on sports teams of the gender that is stated on their birth certificate.
The Iowa State Senate passed HF2416 on March 2, 2022 by a vote of 31 to 17. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because the left has been promoting radical Marxist ideas for years. This indoctrination is letting people believe that they can choose their pronouns and that they can be transgender. Scientifically and biblically, there are two genders. Taxpayers fund sports programs in schools, so this legislation ensures that taxpayer dollars will not be going to athletic programs that embrace the woke culture.
