Governor Signs Women’s Bill of Rights

The governor of Oklahoma has signed an executive order establishing a Women’s Bill of Rights as concerns about the impact of trans ideology on fairness and privacy for women continue.

Oklahoma’s Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt announced Tuesday that he had signed an executive order establishing a Women’s Bill of Rights in his state. He began his executive order by noting the significance of Title IX, legislation passed to ensure equal opportunities for women and girls in education, including in sports. Stitt warned, “Today, radical gender ideologues threaten the hard-fought progress won by women and girls in our society.”

Stitt stressed that his state had enacted a Save Women’s Sports Act requiring athletes to compete on sports teams that align with their biological sex as opposed to their stated gender identity, adding: “More remains to be done to counter the regression of women’s rights in this country.”

According to Stitt, “There are definitional, practical, and material differences between the sexes that have implications for our law in Oklahoma.” (Excerpt from The Christian Post.)
