A judge in Utah granted an injunction temporarily blocking a state law that bars transgender girls from competing in female sports.
, a bill passed by the state legislature earlier this year. The injunction temporarily blocks one section of the law that prohibits biological males from competing in female sports, but the rest of the bill will remain in effect until legal battles over the legislation are resolved.
With the temporary ban, the state will move forward with a backup process that allows a commission to decide whether transgender girl athletes can compete on a case-by-case basis. As a result, transgender girls will still be able to compete but only “when it is fair,” according to the injunction. “If you have not spent time with transgender youth, then I would encourage you to pause on this issue,” Coxwas introduced in February. “We have so many people who are in a very difficult spot right now. And we have very few, if any, transgender girls participating in sports.”
