House Passes Bill to Ban Transgender Women from School Sports

The House approved legislation banning transgender participation in women’s sports, aiming to redefine sex based on biological traits at birth.

Overview

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

The U.S. House passed the 'Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act', banning transgender athletes from participating in women's teams in federally funded schools. Approved 218-206, the bill enjoys limited bipartisan support, with two Democrats voting for it. Proponents, including Rep. Greg Steube, argue it preserves fairness in women's sports, while critics claim it threatens transgender rights and could lead to harmful scrutiny of young athletes. The bill now heads to the Senate, where its future remains uncertain amid potential challenges from Democrats concerned over its implications.
