Alabama bans transgender female athletes from women’s college sports
By Ryan Morik, Fox News
May 31, 2023
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signed legislation Tuesday that prohibits transgender women from participating on female sports teams in college.
The state had previously banned transgender athletes from participating in female youth sports from grades K-12.
Under the law, students are prohibited from playing under a different gender identity even after undergoing hormone treatment.
“Look, if you are a biological male, you are not going to be competing in women’s and girls’ sports in Alabama. It’s about fairness, plain and simple,” Ivey said in a statement.
The movement for the college regulations began in April when legislation advanced in the middle of the month.
