“Yeah.”
That’s how USA Fencing’s chief responded when asked if he was okay female
athletes being disadvantaged when competing.
Damien Lehfeldt, the head of USA Fencing, just testified before a
congressional subcommittee about his organization’s policy that allows
biological men to compete against women.
This comes just weeks after USA Fencing disqualified Stephanie Turner for
refusing to compete against a man. She took a knee, was slapped with the
sport’s harshest penalty, then escorted out of the building.
Lehfeldt hasn’t just defended these anti-woman policies -- he’s mocked those
who disagree. On social media, he’s compared critics of trans athletes in
women’s sports to the KKK.

Now, under pressure, USA Fencing is pretending it might change its policies.
But only if they’re forced to.
Force them.
Send a message to USA Fencing and demand they protect fairness, safety, and
women’s sports --right now. <[link removed]>
