Democrats Condemn H.R. 28 'Child Predator Empowerment Act,' Citing Risks to Girls as Young as Four
Jan 14, 2025, 07:41 PM
Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives are opposing a Republican-sponsored bill, H.R. 28, which they argue would subject girls as young as four to invasive personal questions and genital inspections by adults without parental presence. The bill, referred to by Democrats as the "Child Predator Empowerment Act," aims to ban transgender girls and women from participating in school sports by requiring gender verification. Critics contend that the legislation would endanger children by potentially exposing them to inappropriate examinations, rather than addressing actual issues faced by women and girls in sports. Many Democrats assert that protecting women in sports should focus on preventing sexual and physical abuse, referencing past scandals such as the Larry Nassar case, rather than implementing invasive policies that target transgender youth.
