Urgent: Tell Your Representative to Vote NO on H.R. 28 |
Hey friend, Your voice is needed now more than ever. Recently, members of the House introduced H.R. 28, a bill that would rewrite Title IX—the federal law that protects students against sex discrimination—to exclude transgender and intersex girls and women from participating in sports at federally funded schools and universities. This harmful legislation: |
- Targets trans and intersex youth, denying them the proven social, mental, and physical benefits of sports.
- Ignores academic research, which confirms that transgender women do not have inherent athletic advantages and may face unique disadvantages.
- Fails to address real issues in girls' and women's sports, such as unequal access to facilities and the abuse of athletes by coaches.
