Transgender girls and women would be barred from participating in sports on the team that aligns with their gender identity under a proposed
Arizona law.

The proposal announced by GOP Rep. Nancy Barto on Friday is co-sponsored by 22 other
Republican House members and is the latest on a growing list of more than a dozen states with bills that focus on transgender young people.
The Arizona legislation allows only biological women or girls to play on female teams, and requires a doctor's note to prove a person is female if their birth sex is disputed.
