"Senate Democrats block GOP-led bill to ban transgender athletes from women's sports
Republicans are trying to keep the national spotlight on the issue after Trump and some of the party's down-ballot candidates ran on it in the 2024 election.
WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats voted unanimously to block a Republican-led bill Monday evening that would prohibit federally funded schools from allowing transgender athletes from participating in women's sports.

In a party-line vote of 51-45, Democrats filibustered the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, introduced by Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala. It fell short of the 60 votes needed to advance as Democrats dismissed it as a distraction and a cynical political move.


Four senators didn’t vote: Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va.; Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo.; Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich.; and Peter Welch, D-Vt.

The outcome means the legislation — which passed the House in January and mirrors an executive order issued by President Donald Trump — won’t go any further. But the failed vote is likely to become a political talking point for Republicans in upcoming elections after they used the issue of transgender rights as a cudgel in the 2024 campaign."

More proof that Democrats are not going to move to the center. They continue to be a leftist freak show and toxic to the United States.

Why are Democrats working so hard to make things unfair for girls and women? They always claim to care about “women’s rights.”

The Democrats are going to get young women seriously injured or even killed, but they really didn't give a shit about Biden's illegals raping and murdering American women either.

Well, so much for "common sense" Fetterman and the other so-called moderate dems.

It's like I said, the batshit crazy dems of today only want your freedoms/money and to push anti-American policy.

"Common sense" Democrats are so rare, I'm surprised scientists aren't trying to get two of them to mate in a zoo.

There was one woman who WAS seriously injured - brain injury - when some dude spiked the volleyball at her head, full force.

Absolutely asinine that Democrats allow mediocre men, who could not compete on a men’s team, compete with the girls and rob them of wins.

Why are they against ending a war that could turn into WW III?
They are insane, rabid virtue signalers that will cheer on anything they are told to

Democrats rather burn the world in ww3 than face justice in Nuremberg 2.

Oh well, there goes the patriotism.

Before long every record will be held by a man and women's sports will be no more.

Before long every record will be held by a man and women's sports will be no more.

There will be two sports teams:

1) normal men
2) trangender “women”

Normal women will be out in the cold.

Actual men are temporarily identifying as women to take those awards away from the tranny. But, yes, normal women don't have a chance.

 

[Lisa558]

For people who don’t realize the physical advantage men have, consider this:

In the mid-70s, I took tennis lessons from a young man who had won some regional competitions but never was good enough to move beyond that. He told me that in the winters he lived next door to Chris Evert and the two of them would play against one another. I asked him if he ever won a match against her and he told me….

…always, but that sometimes she won a game.

Imagine. A no-name tennis teacher beats the #1 female tennis champion in the world, and consistently.

 

[ColonelAngus]

You lefties are so brainwashed.

 

[22lcidw]

Yet when we watch entertainment on TV genetic women beat the shit out of genetic men. And progressive socialist extreme feminist women believe this. Ladies, please stop this.

Why do we even need women's sports? Women are equal.
We should all play together. We can call it sports!

If a woman is good enough to play on the White Sox, let her.
If a dude wants to pretend to be a woman and is good enough for the White Sox, great.

There are 10 trans athletes in all of the NCAA. There is absolutely no point to this legislation whatsoever. Across all of the nation's colleges and universities.

In blocking a bill banning trans athletes from participating in women's sports in Utah, the Republican governor of the state said "There are 4 trans athletes in the state of Utah. I think we can deal with that without passing legislation".

The Governor of Utah was right. The legislation is not needed.

We won't be disappointing too many dudes then when they can't play against the women.

"There are 4 trans athletes in the state of Utah. I think we can deal with that without passing legislation".

I agree. Get some mental health experts in there, prescribe some meds and help those poor confused kids, before they harm themselves.
