On November 3, Colorado voters narrowly passed two measures aimed at trans kids.

Proposition 134 requires every school team, from elementary school through college, to be labeled male, female or coed, and keeps trans students off the teams that match who they are. Proposition 135 bans certain surgeries for minors and blocks insurance, Medicaid and public money from paying for them.

These laws target a very small group of kids. Trans athletes are an exceedingly small share of school sports, and Colorado's official voter guide says the state's three large pediatric surgical providers don't perform these surgeries on trans patients under 18. The same guide notes that because the surgery ban depends on why an operation is done, it could create confusion for doctors and families about other care. Medical decisions belong with families and their doctors.

Both measures are regular state laws, so the legislature can repeal them with a simple majority. Governor-elect Phil Weiser and the Colorado General Assembly, pass and sign a bill repealing Propositions 134 and 135 in the 2027 session, which begins January 11. Sign to tell Colorado's leaders to repeal both bans in 2027.
