The Kansas House of Representatives on April 28 voted to sustain Gov. Laura Kelly’s veto on a bill that would have barred biological male athletes from competing in female school sports teams.

The House voted 81–41 in favor of an override, falling just three votes short of overriding the veto via a two-thirds majority.
