In headlines and statehouses, young transgender athletes appear to be a hot-button issue. But a new poll released today suggests that the nation is far less divided than state politicians or the GOP. Hart Research Associates and LGBTQ+ organization the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) released a new report that finds that 73 percent of people believe that trans kids should be allowed to play on the team on which they feel comfortable, including 56 percent of Republicans. The poll also found that 70 percent of the country supports the Equality Act, the watershed nondiscrimination protections bill for LGBTQ+ people that is heading to the Senate Judiciary Committee. Researchers said Wednesday’s poll found that while many initially did express hesitancy about transgender participation in sports, more information quickly shifted their reactions, Opinion research suggests there has been a 30% increase in American support of Trans community in the last 4 years
