Tommy Tuberville on why he's pushing trans athlete ban bill

Quote:
'They like everybody to think when they're born, ‘you’re not a woman, you're actually a man in women's clothing,' Tuberville says of Democrats.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., is leading the charge for a national ban on trans athletes in college sports.

Tuberville previously told Fox News Digital he will be re-introducing the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act to Congress after the new House rules package passed last week, which would punish schools financially if they allow trans athletes to compete against girls and women.

For the Republican, who has been a longtime advocate for the bill, certain decisions that have been made over the last four years under the Biden administration are the driving force behind his urgency on this issue.

"It's just a shame what's happened here over the last four years. It's been an attack on gender, it's been really an attack on women, all women," Tuberville said during an interview on OutKick's "Don't @ Me With Dan Dakich."

The Biden administration, alongside other Democrats, has taken sweeping actions over the last four years to enable trans athletes in women's and girls' sports.

On Jan. 20, 2021, just hours after President Biden assumed office, he issued an executive order on "Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation."

This order included a section that read, "Children should be able to learn without worrying about whether they will be denied access to the restroom, the locker room, or school sports."


Biden issued a sweeping rule that clarified that Title IX’s ban on "sex" discrimination in schools covers discrimination based on gender identity, sexual orientation and "pregnancy or related conditions," in April. The administration insisted the regulation does not address athletic eligibility. However, multiple experts presented evidence to Fox News Digital in June that it would ultimately put more biological men in women's sports.

Multiple states filed lawsuits and enacted their own laws to address this issue, and then the Supreme Court then voted 5-4 in August to reject an emergency request by the Biden administration to enforce its sweeping changes in those states.

In March 2023, Democrats advocated for a transgender bill of rights, proposing a resolution "recognizing that it is the duty of the Federal Government to develop and implement a Transgender Bill of Rights."

A national exit poll conducted by the Concerned Women for America legislative action committee found that 70% of moderate voters saw the issue of "Donald Trump’s opposition to transgender boys and men playing girls and women’s sports and of transgender boys and men using girls and women’s bathrooms," as important to them.

Additionally, 6% said it was the most important issue of all, while 44% said it was "very important."

Sorry, just changing into girls' clothing doesn't give your more rights than anybody else, and, that includes cheating in female sporting events..

If I identified as a woman who masturbates in the subway could I have my own special day and talk show?

No, but if you choke the chicken on a zoom video business call, you can get your job back on CNN. 'Ole 'Lubin Toobin, sure did.

Those movies freaked me out a bit as a kid, particularly "The Incredible Shrinking Man".
