Proposed Indiana legislation concerns LGBTQ advocates

January 26, 2024

A new Indiana House bill would replace instances of the word “gender” with the phrase “biological sex” in some state statutes.

House Bill 1291 aims to remove the word “in certain statutes in which the term is used to describe the condition of being physically male or female.”

Advocates against the legislation said it would dangerous for members of the LGBTQ+ community.
