Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., pushes back on President Biden calling the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2023"discrimination." "I know that there are so many personal stories, and in addition to these wonderful women members of Congress, we have tremendous women athletes who are here with us today, who have talked about the unfairness when it comes to biological males competing in women’s sports," she added."If you talk to women leaders today, so many had opportunities when it came to sports growing up. I myself played varsity lacrosse, I also rowed crew in high school.
"There's not a good definition of what a transgender girl is," Foxx expanded to Fox Digital."One cannot change one's gender. It's not possible to do. Certainly people can change what they say about who they identify as, but they cannot change their gender. So the term ‘transgender’ is ridiculous. It's just ridiculous. You can't go from one gender to another.""The Democrats pretend to be the party of science," she added.
"Before a woman even sets foot in a locker room," she said."Before she even sets foot on the court, before she ever dives from the first swim meet, she's already in a vulnerable position. And we need to protect our women and girls in sports because of these vulnerabilities.""We've worked too damn hard to put up with the bulls--- of the left that wants to take our achievements away from us," she said.
