Washington Transgender women and girls in South Dakota will not be able to compete on sports teams consistent with their gender at accredited schools and colleges after the state's GOP governor enacted a"fairness in women's sports" law on Thursday.
Gov. Kristi Noem's decision to sign SB 46, which quickly made its way through the statehouse at the start of the 2022 legislative session, makes South Dakota the first state this year to enact an anti-trans law, according to the Human Rights Campaign, one of the nation's leading LGBTQ rights groups. It also makes South Dakota the latest Republican-led state to approve such a measure following a slew of similar initiatives nationwide last year.
