U.S. House to Fast-Track 'Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act' Banning Transgender Athletes
Jan 6, 2025, 01:31 PM
The U.S. House of Representatives, under Republican control, is set to fast-track a bill aimed at banning transgender athletes from competing in women's sports. The 'Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act,' reintroduced by Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla.), is part of a rules package that prioritizes 12 bills for the new 119th Congress. The legislation seeks to amend Title IX to define sex based on 'a person’s reproductive biology and genetics at birth,' thereby prohibiting schools receiving federal funding from allowing individuals identified as male at birth to participate in women's sports. The bill, which has been debated and passed the House in previous sessions but stalled in the Senate, is supported by President-elect Donald Trump and other prominent Republicans. It is expected to pass the House with its Republican majority, though its fate in the Senate remains uncertain due to potential filibuster by Democrats. The bill is fast-tracked to the House floor for a vote.
