President Trump recently signed an executive order banning transgender athletes from participating in women's sports, which he claims ends the 'war on women's sports.' The order emphasizes Title IX enforcement, risking federal funding for educational programs that allow transgender women to compete. While Trump argues this action is necessary to protect cisgender women athletes' rights, critics say the perceived advantages of trans athletes are exaggerated. A Gallup poll suggests that a significant portion of the public supports competing based on birth-assigned sex, contributing to the executive order's popularity beyond Trump’s usual support base.
With this executive order, the war on women's sports is over, asserting a definitive stance against transgender athletes in women's competitions.
If you let men take over women's sports teams or invade your locker rooms, you will be investigated for violations of Title IX and risk your federal funding.
The order calls on the government to rescind all funds from educational programs that deprive women and girls of fair athletic opportunities.
Public support for the order may be broader than support for Trump, with nearly 7 in 10 Americans believing transgender athletes should compete based on assigned sex.
