Sen. Tommy Tuberville questioned why women's rights groups aren't fighting to keep transgender athletes out of women's sports.
"What you look for in sports is fairness," Tuberville, an Alabama Republican, told Fox News."We started Title IX to give women the same level playing field as men."
"You're going to see downfall of young girls getting into sports at an earlier age," Tuberville told Fox News."They're not going to have the opportunities." Tuberville cosponsored the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, which would limit women's sports at federally funded athletic programs to biological females.
"If you want to have a transgender [league], I’m fine with that," the senator continued."I think everybody should have the opportunity to compete.""You got to have a level playing field," he said."And there’s just not a level playing field when you allow somebody that’s that much bigger, faster, stronger, and there’s nothing you can do to change that."
