Excuse me but didn’t scotus weigh in on this years ago? Not that I wouldn’t bet this new collection of deplorables wouldn’t sign off on this Repuke attack.
Dems had best wake up to what is really an issue for a long long struggle for women’s rights in sports.
A tran in women’s sports is plain unfair when you consider how we struggled for decades.
Dems are not perfect.
Neither party is always right or always wrong.
This is highly debated issues, touching on fairness in sports and inclusion. It’s important to ensure policies are grounded in both equality and respect all individual involved. Discussions like these need careful consideration and empathy.
If you're going to pass a transgender athletes ban then make sure it is for women and men sports along with girls and boy sports. This whole separate but equal shit by the GOP is trademark for them.
How about the federal government just ban all sports except co-ed. Problem solved.
I guess the GOP finally decide to address the biggest issue this country is facing. Americans are not concerned about the price of food ,the lack of affordable housing not even the border security since they already reject the bill. No it is trans in sport and after it will be trans in public toilet
White-(pseudo)Christo-fascist hatred on full display for the whole world to see.
I am certain that Speaker Johnson is thrilled with this targeted abuse of already vulnerable trans people.
This GOP (Group of Psychopaths) dog whistle will certainly embolden MAGAt bigots to harm LGBTQ+ people.
CNN is fkg garbage. Haven't watched for yrs & encourage others do so too. Once more they provide GOP bigots cover by ensuring headline nor tagline mentions the bill makes girls as young as 4 vulnerable to predators eg Larry Nassar by allowing for the inspection of their private parts by strangers
Still putting Targets on the backs of children families and other Americans This is wrong and disgusting but so typical of the hatred from the cancerous growth that has become the Republican Party
It's not 0 though. I support people living their reality, but women aren't keen to compete against athletes who went through puberty as men - it's like competing against someone who took steroids the last five years. If they took puberty blockers and fully transitioned at 18, there's no problem.
The word count is too low to speak eloquently about this but I wanted to make it clear I would champion any trans cause except participation in high performance and contact sports unless the athlete used puberty blockers and met criteria. Sports needs to be safe and fair.
1) The trans athlete fiasco the UNR in Reno caused regarding a San Jose Volleyball player was disgusting. NCAA required she give bloodiest, etc medical records proving female results. She provided those records and met the requirements. UNR and other bigoted schools chose to forfeit against her
2) team. You would not be able to pick out “the trans” looking at a team picture and a player for San Jose had no clue she was trans until she was outed and subsequently targeted for harassment. With all due respect, how dare you offer your acceptance only based on your rules for what you think
he isnt in office yet 🤣 small changes to culture and things like this are important. People think by the first week all the prices will be down 😅 silly dems
This is a significant move that raises important questions about fairness in sports. It’s crucial we engage in discussions about inclusivity while also addressing the concerns surrounding competitive equity. How can we find a balance that respects all athletes?
you know what would be helpful is, like, a Court for Arbitration of Sport where they rule on objective metrics established for participation by sporting leagues

Republicans believe in leaving these things to the states.
Trans people make up about 0.5% to 1.6% of the American people.
Trans people make up about 0.008% of the total NCAA athletes.
Fuck MAGAts and the GOP to hell
