House Republicans poised to pass transgender sports ban for schools
NBCAUG 2023
The GOP is on the side of fairness and sanity as it passes the Protection of Women and Girls Sports Act. The biological differences between men and women are apparent, and we see these differences so starkly when a biological male competes against a woman. This legislation is a victory not only for women but also for science and decency.
This act is just the GOP’s latest attack on the rights of transgender people. The GOP is not concerned with fairness to women; it's only concerned with promoting a political agenda. Transgender students don't harm their cisgender counterparts in any way, but this legislation strips this demographic of their rights to play on teams that align with who they are.
