Under the proposal, schools that receive federal funding would not be allowed to impose blanket bans on transgender athletes playing sports on teams that correspond to their gender identity. However, the rule would permit schools to impose eligibility rules that fit “important educational objectives” — such as competitive fairness and reduction of injury risk.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre speaks during the daily briefing at the White House in Washington, Tuesday, June 13, 2023.“This is a complicated issue,” Jean-Pierre replied. “I also want to make clear that this is a proposal and members of public have the ability to provide comment as part of the rulemaking process.”
Jean-Pierre’s tense exchange with Jensen drew backlash from conservatives and supporters of women’s sports. “When they say ‘inclusion’, just know they really mean ‘exclusion’. The message this sends to ALL women is that our safety doesn’t matter. Nor does our privacy, our fairness, our equal opportunities, or our dignity. The misogyny is slapping us across the face. #SaveWomensSports,” former NCAA swimmer and Independent Women’s Voice adviser Riley Gaines tweeted.The message this sends to ALL women is that our safety doesn't matter.
