"South Dakotans narrowly missed the detonation of a precedent-setting bomb on Super Tuesday when Gov. Dennis Daugaard vetoed a bill that would have been devastating for the transgender community. HB 1008, which was designed to "restrict access to certain restrooms and locker rooms in public schools," would have required that students use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their "biological sex." It's just one of a number of so-called bathroom bills that target the trans community by forcing people into unsafe spaces that don't align with their gender — a form of political dogwhistle that relies on fear of the trans community to whip up sentiments among conservatives."
