House Passes Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act in 218-206 Vote
Jan 14, 2025, 06:16 PM
Representative Greg Steube's Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act (H.R. 28) passed the U.S. House of Representatives with a 218-206 vote. The bill aims to prevent biological males from competing in women's sports by defining gender based on biological sex under Title IX. The legislation, supported by Republican lawmakers and President Donald Trump, seeks to ensure fairness and safety for female athletes. Only two Democrats voted in favor of the bill. Athletes like Riley Gaines have voiced support for the act. Democrats opposed the bill, arguing it could lead to invasive examinations of young girls. The bill now moves to the Senate for consideration.
