The Legislature’s ban on transgender girls in school sports will not help Utah move forward, write attorneys Paul C. Burke and John W. Mackay, whose firm, Ray Quinney & Nebeker, has represented both the Utah Pride Center and Equality Utah.
Under the headline “Utah’s transgender athlete bill does not live up to the ‘Utah Way,’ the Deseret News condemned the bill as “ill-conceived” and “a poster child for bad legislation.”
The Utah Jazz opposed the transgender bill, and one of the team’s owners, Dwayne Wade, is the proud father of a transgender teenager. The Utah Way must now be restored and safeguarded to bridge divides and protect us from extremism. We should resist calls to ban inclusive books, unduly restrict the free speech of professional educators, or undermine the Constitutional guarantees that protect the lives and families of LGBTQ Utahns.
