Senate Bill 788 — the Senate version of the Equality Act.The third ad alleges that the Equality Act would “destroy girls’ sports” because it would let trans girls — or, as the ad puts it, “a competitor who claims to be a girl but was born a boy” — compete against cisgender girls in interscholastic sports.These claims are misleading.
The Equality Act would amend existing civil rights law to ban discrimination based on sexual orientation in employment, housing, credit, public accommodations, and several other aspects of life.
