Federal Legislation Introduced to #SaveGirlsSports


The nationwide movement to #SaveGirlsSports has never been stronger,
and today there's a big development.

Family Policy Alliance is excited to stand with Senator Kelly Loeffler
(R-GA) in her effort to #SaveGirlsSports by introducing new federal
legislation that would make sure schools keep girls' sports for
girls if they receive federal funds.

The bill would make it a violation of Title IX for these schools to
allow biologically male students who identify as female to play in
girls' sports. Title IX is the federal law that protects equal
educational opportunities - including school athletic
opportunities - for girls.

This common sense and scientifically sound legislation would follow in
the footsteps of the Fairness in Women's Sports Act, the
groundbreaking Idaho law passed this year with the help of Family
Policy Alliance of Idaho and the thousands of you who emailed and
called to make your voice heard.

Here are three reasons why federal law should explicitly protect
school sports for girls:

1. Throughout the nation, girls are losing athletic competitions
and scholarships to biological men. Female track-runners at
Idaho State University lost to a biological man in a
women's event at the Big Sky Conference Track and Field
Championships. In Connecticut, four female high school athletes
sued their state interscholastic athletics conference after two
biologically male athletes won 15girls' state
championships. These are only two examples of the numerous
instances across the nation of males competing in girls'
school sports-placing females at a sharp disadvantage.

2. Americans overwhelmingly support protecting girls'
sports. Recent polling shows that most Americans -
including majorities of Republicans, Democrats, and
independents - agree that female athletes should not be
forced to compete against biological men.

3. Preserves the spirit of Title IX for future generations of
girls. Title IX has made a world of difference for female
opportunity in sports: before the law only 1 in 27 girls played
sports, versus the 2 in 5 that play today. Forcing female
athletes to compete against biological men effectively cancels
out Title IX protections for girls. If Title IX means anything,
athletic opportunities for girls must be protected.

The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act builds on Senator
Loeffler's impressive pro-family legislative portfolio, and we
are incredibly grateful for her boldness in introducing this important
and timely legislation. As we saw in Idaho, the political Left is
bound to respond with vitriol, hostility, and a deep disregard for
biological realities.

At Family Policy Alliance, we're working hard to advance
policies like these that can help #SaveGirlsSports. Idaho was the
first state to protect girls' sports, but we have a vision to
help protect all female athletes around the nation, too. Will you help
us make that vision a reality? With a sacrificial gift of $100, $50,
or even $25, you can help us #SaveGirlsSports by guaranteeing fair
play and equal competition for our daughters.

The extreme Left wants to ignore biology in the name of a radical
agenda, but here at Family Policy Alliance we are working every day to
recognize God-given realities and help give families - including
female athletes - the opportunity to thrive. Will you join us?
