Topeka, KS (April 22, 2021) – Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson and Senator Renee Erickson issued the following statement in response to the decision by Governor Kelly to veto the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act:
“It’s not surprising but nonetheless disappointing that Governor Kelly opted to veto the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act and capitulate to the mistruths and extreme rhetoric offered by the left. The Fairness in Women’s Sports Act is as simple as it sounds – it ensures fairness. It’s not about anything else other than that, and no state should allow itself to be intimidated by big corporations or the NCAA into pretending otherwise. We will continue to fight for fairness in women’s sports until this bill becomes law.”
