Families, communities, states, and nations are stronger when female athletes are protected from biological men taking over their sports teams. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday to protect women’s and girls’ sports teams from being invaded by biological male athletes.
According to Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell in her article published at The Daily News, Trump signed the order on the 39th annual National Girls & Women in Sports Day. Trump declared, “The war on women’s sports is over.” He added, “We will not allow men to beat up, injure, and cheat our women and our girls. From now on, women’s sports will be only for women.”
The House of Representatives passed the
Protection of Women and Girls Act in January. The Senate has yet to vote on the
bill, sponsored by Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., a former college football
coach.
Nearly three-quarters (72%) of registered
voters think biological males should not be allowed to participate in women’s
and girls' sports, according to national polling from RMG Research shared with
The Daily Signal.
Female athletes worldwide have lost about
900 medals to so-called transgender rivals competing against them in women’s
sporting categories, according to a new United Nations report.
Tuberville introduced legislation to
protect women’s sports from male athletes. Tuberville said the Senate needs to
pass the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, as executive orders can
be reversed.
“On Nov. 5, 2024, the American people just
didn’t elect President Trump, they also decisively rejected this ridiculous
notion that men can get pregnant and boys should compete in women’s sports,”
Tuberville said on the Senate floor Wednesday.
Parents
and other adults should contact their senators to ensure that they vote for
Tuberville’s bill to make permanent Trump’s ban on biological males playing in
females sports. Banning males from playing in female sports is one way that
parents can protect their daughters from being injured physically while playing
sports. They can also protect their daughter’s right to excel in their sport.
By ending this practice, parents can strengthen their families, communities, states,
and nation.
