Kentucky GOP overrides governor's veto, enacts anti-trans law.

TL;DR Summary
Republican lawmakers in Kentucky have overridden the Democratic governor's veto of a bill that restricts transgender young people's access to gender-affirming health care and bathrooms. The bill's opponents have framed the issue as a civil-rights fight, and the American Civil Liberties Union of Kentucky has vowed to take the fight to the courts. The debate about the transgender bill is likely to spill over into this year's gubernatorial campaign, with the veto drawing GOP condemnation as the governor seeks reelection to a second term.
