Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb vetoed a bill banning transgender girls from girls school sports and signed a 'constitutional carry' handgun bill.
INDIANAPOLIS -- Indiana's governor on Monday vetoed a bill banning transgender females from participating in girls school sports while signing another eliminating the state's permit requirement to carry handguns in public.
Republican sponsors of the bill said it was needed to protect the integrity of female sports and opportunities for girls to gain college athletic scholarship but pointed out no instances in the state of girls being outperformed by transgender athletes. Indiana lawmakers can override the governor's veto with simple majorities in both the House and Senate. A veto override vote could happen as soon as May 24, which legislative leaders have scheduled as a tentative one-day meeting.
Democrats argued Republican lawmakers were following a national conservative"culture war" with the transgender girls sports ban. At least 21 other states already allow residents to carry handguns without permit - and Ohio's Republican governor signed a similar bill last week.
