The bill, which passed the state Senate last month, marked the first time that American lawmakers voted to force children to choose between school facilities based on the "physical condition of being male or female as determined by a person's chromosomes and anatomy as identified at birth."
Gov. Dennis Daugaard's veto comes as something of a surprise. He previously said that the bill seemed like a good idea and that he didn't plan to meet with any transgender people before deciding whether to sign it.
