Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga) and Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich) are co-sponsoring the Equality Act. this legislation would make "gender identity" a protected class under federal anti-discrimination law. It would require schools to open female-only spaces to biological males who identify as transgender girls, including sports teams.
"I realize that opponents of my bill predict that allowing males to participate in women's sports would effectively abolish segregation by sex and lead to the demise of unique female only teams," Ossoff admitted. "I say so what. Isn't the existence of separate teams a disparagement of females. Doesn't it say that these females aren't up to the challenge of a totally open competition? Doesn't coddling females harm their sense of self-worth? Why shouldn't males who are not able to compete with other males be able to compete with females?"
If Ossoff and Stevens expect their support for the Equality Act will aid their chances in the 2026 elections they are probably mistaken. While Democrat progressives are enthusiastic about reshaping society by eliminating distinctions between actual females and faux females, most Democrats are not. A New York Times survey conducted in January found that almost 70% of voters who lean Democrat oppose allowing transgenders to join female sports teams. However, Stevens said "I am confident that once we pass this law voters will fall in line. It's one thing to oppose a concept. It's quite another to oppose a law passed by Congress. As champions of this law I believe Jon and myself will experience a rising tide of support as election day approaches."
Most people are sick and tired of this kind of crap the Dims are up to their necks in. It will not help the Dims one bit if they think this will appeal to normal people.

Special treatment is NOT equal treatment!
No, thank you.
For the benefit of the overwhelming vast majority, who are deserving of “protected status”, their normalcy should be protected and “trans” persons must be assigned “single user, one person” restroom, lockerroom and shower facilities. That will give them the privacy they desire away from their own bilogical sex, and give privacy to the majority who are of the opposite biological sex, the ones the “trans” desire to pretend to be part of.
Democrats are sucking up to every freak creature that can vote their ass is long gone down the river and heading for the falls their party is a gone a history lesson not to be forgotten for the damage they have done to America.
At all!
I agree.
Jon Ossof looks like he never made the boys team.
