Friends and neighbors,

The United States Supreme Court has struck down a Biden administration request to enforce portions of a new Title IX rule that would have allowed biological men to use women's bathrooms, locker rooms, and dorms in 10 states with existing protections against this. This decision is a victory for women's rights and the integrity of women's sports.

The Biden administration's rule, which took effect on August 1, sought to redefine "sex" discrimination to include gender identity and sexual orientation. This change would have had far-reaching consequences, potentially allowing biological men to compete in women's sports. It would have directly impacted the fairness of competition in women's sports. Biological differences between males and females, such as muscle mass, bone density, and cardiovascular capacity, create significant advantages in athletic performance for males. Allowing biological males to compete in women's sports would put female athletes at a disadvantage and potentially discourage their participation in sports.

By maintaining separate categories based on biological sex, we can ensure that women and girls have equal opportunities to excel in athletics, earn scholarships, and pursue their dreams in sports. This ruling helps preserve the progress made through Title IX in advancing women's athletics over the past five decades.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

God Bless,
