Hutto ISD responds to ‘undercover video investigation’ about transgender sports
AUSTIN (KXAN) — A group behind several “undercover video investigations” that sparked action from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton recently targeted a local school district.
Accuracy in Media, a watchdog media group, released a video that showed someone posing as a parent talking to a Hutto ISD administrator about getting their transgender child into the school and exploring if they can participate in sports.
That administrator said the district would have to follow the sex on the child’s birth certificate.
In 2023, Gov. Greg Abbott signed into law what’s known as “Save Women’s Sports Act,” requiring college athletes to compete on teams that match their sex assigned at birth.
In 2021, Abbott signed similar legislation, HB 25, into law. It mandated that public school students must compete in interscholastic athletic competitions based on their biological sex.
