Fairness in Women's Sports
I am seeking public input on a bill titled "Fairness in Women's Sports." A number of states have already introduced similar legislation and the bill has become law in a few states.
President Biden on his first full day in office signed an executive order to allow students to play sports based on gender identity, not biological sex.
Beth Stelzer, a female amateur powerlifter and founder of Save Women's Sports, said, "If biological men are allowed to compete in women's sports, there will be men's sports, there will be co-ed sports, but there will no longer be women's sports."
Part of the concern from women's groups is that biologically-male students could compete against girls for athletic scholarships to colleges. Send your comments to brichardson@mspublications.com
