28 DEMS SIGN LETTER DEMANDING TRANSGENDER MALES IN FEMALE SPORTS
Twenty-eight congressional Democrats signed a letter Wednesday condemning the Department of Education for ruling that public schools that allow biological males who identify as transgender to play girls sports are violating Title IX civil rights legislation.
Democratic Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal joined 27 House Democrats in signing the letter, which charged that the departmentās order ādiscriminates against transgender youthā by restricting girls sports to biological females.
āThe decision of the Department of Education to issue a determination targeting transgender student athletes on the eve of Pride Month is not coincidental. It is a transparent example of their campaign against the rights and dignity of LGBTQ+ children,ā Connecticut Rep. Jahana Hayes, the letterās lead signer, said in aĀ press release.
The Education Department on May 15Ā issuedĀ a ruling stating that public schools that allow biological males into girls athletics are violating Title IX, which protects womenās access to education and athletics.
The Department of Justice previouslyĀ backed a lawsuitĀ filed by high school girls in Connecticut who said the liberal stateās transgender policies violated their rights.

Sports across the country are on hold due to the novel coronavirus, but biological males who identify as transgender have previously racked up accomplishments in female athletics.
Franklin Pierce University runner CeCe Telfer, for example,Ā wonĀ an NCAA Division II womenās track championshipĀ in May 2019. Telfer is aĀ biological maleĀ who identifies as transgender.
University of Montana runner June Eastwood, a biological male who identifies as a transgender woman, was named the Big Sky ConferenceāsĀ female athlete of the weekĀ in October 2019. Both Eastwood and Telfer previously competed on their universityās menās team beforeĀ switchingĀ to the womenās team.
Rachel McKinnon, a biological male whoĀ identifies as transgender, won womenās cycling world championships inĀ both 2018 and 2019.
Wednesdayās letterĀ isnāt the first instanceĀ of Democratic politiciansĀ arguing in favorĀ of allowing biological males into female athletics.
Democratic MinnesotaĀ Rep. Ilhan OmarĀ in February 2019Ā called for an investigationĀ into USA Powerlifting for barring biologically male athletes from womenās events.
A piece of Democratic legislation called theĀ Equality Act, whichĀ passedĀ the House withĀ unanimous supportĀ from Democrats, wouldĀ requireĀ schools to allow biologically male athletes into girls sports, if the male athletes identify as transgender.

God gave men strength much stronger than women. for this reason, it would be unfair for you as basically a man you have an advantage to winning and you are not eligible in women’s sports!
It is not fair for males even if they say they are females. God made male and female different and this society who are liberal persons need to read the bible. God made males stronger and therefore it is unfair for them to compete in the female’s sport!
There are only two sexes, male and female, only. The supreme court is bad joke, a group of fools!
Lord, The enemy, the father of lies, has used deception to declare what is false to be true. I pray against this lie that men can become any thing other than what you created them to be. I pull down this stronghold of transgenderism that has spread its influence over our nation and trapped itās victims. Dear God, begin to open the eyes of the American people to see the destruction this false ideology perpetuates, the lives it destroys, the time and finances it wastes. Bring discernment to our nation, that a man, who undergoes surgery, hormone treatments, and dresses up like a women is still a man trying to hide behind a facade. Itās simply a person living a lie. Bring out the reality of this nonsense to the forefront. Raise up a people who know the truth and speak the truth in love. Give us understanding in how to reach people caught in this snare. Teach us Lord how to effectively pray to change this abomination spreading in our nation.
Lord,You are raising up an army to battle these forces of darkness. Pour out Your Spirit on us, and teach us how to use that power.
Michael
Amen! Amen!
Your words are powerful and clear. You spoke a complete coverage over this national tragedy. May our prayer voices increase
Lord, help us. What is right is now wrong and the wrong thing is now right. Bring revival to your Church and this nation. Reveal Your truth and give courage and boldness to Your people. May Your Word rule and reign in our hearts, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
