We Need You to Testify Against S.531 in the South Carolina Senate!
On Thursday, May 6, the South Carolina Senate Education Subcommittee will consider S.531, a bill that would prohibit transgender youth in middle and high school from participating in student athletics. The bill is the same as measures that have already been rejected FIVE TIMES in the 2021 legislative session.
We need your help to reject this new push in the Senate: Can you show up to the SC Statehouse in Columbia for the 9:00am hearing on Thursday, May 6? If you’re interested or able to attend, please add your name below so we can get in touch with more information.
Every student should be able to access the opportunities and lessons of school athletics, and South Carolina lawmakers should stop their vendetta against transgender students. To categorically deny transgender students the freedom to play alongside their peers is completely at odds with lawmakers’ duties to care for and protect our youth. Thanks for testifying.
