Maine Voters to Decide Sports and Bathroom Access Ballot Question

Maine residents will have the opportunity to vote on a November ballot measure regarding transgender participation in sports and facility access. The initiative was placed on the ballot after Protect Girls Sports in Maine successfully collected the required signatures.

Maine voters will decide this November on a ballot measure concerning transgender individuals’ participation in athletics and access to certain facilities. The proposal would restrict biological males from competing on female sports teams and using women’s restrooms and changing areas.

Protect Girls Sports in Maine successfully collected enough petition signatures to secure the measure’s placement on the upcoming ballot. According to the organization, “Males are taking female trophies and invading female safe spaces. This is not a faraway concept; it is happening right here in Maine.”
