Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson Says He Is Vetoing HB1570, Which Bans Gender Transition Procedures for Minors
‘I don’t shy away from the battle when it is necessary and defensible’
TRANSCRIPT:
HUTCHINSON: "I was told this week that the nation is looking at Arkansas because I have on my desk another bill passed by the General Assembly that is a product of a cultural war in America. I don't shy away from the battle when it is necessary and defensible, but the most decent action of the General Assembly, while well-intended, is off-course and I must veto House Bill 1570."
