From opinion columnist LaurieRoberts: Will Gov. Doug Ducey really sign bills that victimize rape victims and transgender 12-year-olds?
The bill was sent to Ducey on Thursday after it cleared the House on a party-line vote.The bill’s sponsor, Sen. Nancy Barto, R-Phoenix, on Thursday proclaimed it a “victory for Arizona values.”
“This bill protects our daughters and our granddaughters,” Senate Judiciary Chairman Warren Petersen, R-Gilbert, said earlier this year, during a hearing on the bill. “It’s absolute lunacy to think that it’s OK to allow a male to dominate in a female sport.”Look no further than University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas, who is obliterating school and national records while competing on the women’s swim team.
“You’re putting all these kids at risk,” warned another, who has a 17-year-old transgender daughter. “You don’t understand how hard we’re fighting just to keep our kids alive.”Most of us don’t understand – including, I would wager, every Republican legislator who picked up a sledgehammer to solve a problem that requires a scalpel.
