May 24 – that’s the date Indiana House Speaker Todd Huston says there will be a vote to override the veto by Gov. Eric Holcomb on legislation that would ban transgender girls from playing on girls sports teams at school. “The fundamental goal of this legislation is to protect competition in girls’ sports, and House Republicans will vote to override this veto when lawmakers meet again on May 24,” Huston said in a statement. “This issue continues to be in the national spotlight and for good reason as women have worked hard for equal opportunities on the playing field — and that’s exactly what they deserve.”
