Kansas Governor Vetoes Anti-Trans Bills Amid Override Threats.

Kansas Governor Laura Kelly vetoed a set of anti-transgender measures, including a ban on gender-affirming care for children and teenagers, but Republican lawmakers who pushed them appeared to have the votes to override most of her actions. The measures on bathrooms, jails, and overnight school trips passed earlier this month with the two-thirds majorities needed to override a veto, and on April 5, lawmakers overrode Kelly’s March veto of a separate ban on female transgender athletes in girls’ and women’s sports. At least 14 states with GOP-led legislatures have enacted laws against gender-affirming care for minors, including North Dakota as of Wednesday.
