Waukee students walk out over Iowa's transgender sports law - KCCI Des Moines

WAUKEE, Iowa —

High school students in Waukee walked out Wednesday morning in protest of Iowa’s new transgender athlete law.

About 100 students from both high schools marched out of the school and across the road to a park. There, they took turns giving speeches.

Earlier this month, Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a law banning transgender athletes from competing in female sports. That applies to high school sports.

The law took effect immediately. At that time, Iowa joined 10 other states in banning transgender athletes.

Students said sports isn’t just about winning, but about community. They said they don’t want any of their transgender friends kicked off the team.
