While Porter said she is supportive of the current state law, she agreed with Ware.

"These are rules that can and should be set by the governing bodies, and so in the case of California school sports, the California Interscholastic Federation should be making this decision at every level of sports competition," she said.

Like Ware and Porter, Becerra said governing bodies in sports "should decide who plays in the sport."
