TL;DR Summary

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs has vetoed a bill that would have prohibited schools from referring to transgender students by their preferred names or pronouns. The bill would have required schools to use the name and pronoun assigned to the student at birth, unless parental permission was granted. Hobbs called the legislation an attack on transgender children and said that everyone should have the freedom to be who they are without fear of harassment or judgment. Transgender rights have become a target in GOP-majority state legislatures like Arizona.
