House Republicans pass bill to ban transgender athletes from girls’ sports
- The House voted 218 to 206 to pass a bill banning transgender athletes from women's and girls' sports at federally funded schools and educational institutions, with two Democrats voting in favor and one voting present.
- The bill, called the 'Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act,' seeks to amend federal law to define sex based on reproductive biology and genetics at birth for Title IX compliance in athletics.
- Republicans argue that transgender women have a physical advantage over cisgender women in sports, while Democrats claim the bill discriminates against transgender individuals, particularly youth.
- The bill's future in the Senate is uncertain, as it likely faces challenges due to the need for bipartisan support to overcome a filibuster.
