Texas has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA, demanding it screen the sex of student athletes amidst growing scrutiny of transgender women in sports. Attorney General Ken Paxton's lawsuit claims the NCAA is exploiting loopholes that permit transgender participation despite its rules. He requests a temporary injunction to either mandate screenings or forbid the NCAA from using female identifiers in relation to women's sports. This legal challenge arises from an increasingly hostile political climate towards transgender individuals, wherein such accusations often result in harassment and intensified media scrutiny.
"Texas is suing the NCAA to mandate sex screenings for student athletes, claiming loopholes allow transgender women to compete despite existing restrictions."
"The attorney general seeks an injunction to halt the use of 'women' or 'girl' in women's sports references until screenings are implemented."
