Opponents of I-638 sue to stop ban on trans girls in girls' school sports

A coalition of Washington families, educators and civil-rights groups has sued to block Initiative 638, which bars transgender girls from competing in girls’ K-12 school sports. The lawsuit, filed Monday night, argues that the measure’s sex-verification process violates the state constitution and students’ privacy rights. The plaintiffs include five families, the Washington Education Association and TransFamilies. Supporters of the initiative dispute the privacy concerns, KUOW reports.
