U.S. Rep. Summer Lee said the belief that females shouldn’t be forced to compete against males is ‘transphobic bigotry’ during a Congressional hearing.
‘States like Florida have an interest in protecting women and girls as men continue to take medals, podium spots, and other opportunities away from women in female sports.’
A California Christian church and preschool were pushed out of a federal food program for policies opposing homosexuality and transgenderism, including a prohibition on 'lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender lifestyles' for staff.
'Sadly, it’s not just female athletes who will suffer from this radical overreach of executive authority. Doctors could be forced to perform medical procedures that violate their conscience, school districts could undermine parents by concealing vital information about their child’s health, and public universities will be able to censor and compel students’ speech.'
