TRYING TO PROTECT GIRLS SPORTS IS HAPPENING IN COLORADO With a ballot initiative called Initiative 160. It simply says that only girls or women may participate in sports designated for girls or women. This is the important bit:ONLY FEMALE STUDENTS, BASED ON THEIR BIOLOGICAL SEX AT BIRTH, MAY PARTICIPATE ON ANY TEAM OR IN A SPORT OR ATHLETIC EVENT DESIGNATED AS BEING FOR FEMALES, WOMEN, OR GIRLS. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO RESTRICT THE ELIGIBILITY OF ANY STUDENT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY INTERSCHOLASTIC, INTRAMURAL, OR CLUB ATHLETIC TEAM, SPORT, OR ATHLETIC EVENT DESIGNATED AS FOR MALES, MEN, OR BOYS OR DESIGNATED AS COEDUCATIONAL OR MIXED. Read it for yourself here. Rather than let the people decide on whether or not to keep boys out of girls sports, the Democrat opposition is attacking whether or not it violates the Single Subject Rule in Colorado. It will be heard before the Colorado Supreme Court, which we know makes really, really bad decisions as evidenced by their often overturned rulings
