58th Legislature[]
Transphobic Legislation
In April 2021, Rep. Hasenbeck revived a bill by Justin Humphrey that would ban transgender athletes from participating in women's sports.[3] She justified her support using trans exclusionary feminist language saying "this is not an anti-transgender bill at all... this is an absolutely pro-female-athlete bill."[4] Rep. Mauree Turner criticized the legislation saying "denying the existence of trans children is absolutely absurd."[4]
