Biden to veto GOP bill protecting women's sports, calls it 'discrimination' against transgender students

White House: 'If the President were presented with HR 734, he would veto it.'

The White House vowed Monday that President Biden will veto a bill that would prevent biological males from participating in women's sports should it pass both houses fo Congress.

The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, or H.R. 734, was introduced by Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., and is expected to come to a vote on the House floor sometime this week.

"The Administration strongly opposes House passage of H.R. 734," the White House said in a statement. "For students nationwide, participating in sports and being part of a team is an important part of growing up, staying engaged in school, and learning leadership and life skills. H.R. 734 would deny access to sports for many families by establishing an absolute ban on transgender students—even those as young as elementary schoolers—playing on a team consistent with their gender identity."

"Schools, coaches, and athletic associations around the country are already working with families to develop participation rules that are fair and that take into account particular sports, grade levels, and levels of competition. As a national ban that does not account for competitiveness or grade level, H.R. 734 targets people for who they are and therefore is discriminatory," it said.

The statement accused politicians of dictating a "one-size-fits-all requirement that forces coaches to remove kids from their teams," and argued transgender youth across the country were already facing a mental health crisis.

It claimed such a law was "unnecessary," and that it "hurts families and students."

There's some trannys scattered around here or there, but not enough to form any kind of team, hell, not even a league for any kind of sport. Just enough to be spoilers in competition. Yet the Regime has repeatedly proclaimed they will fight tooth & nail over it. No help from the top, so resistance and resolution is going to have to come from the bottom up, from and by the people. There is a legit grievance here and it's going to have to be vigorously pursued.

Sports is not sex and the LGBQXYZ is all about THAT and nothing more... Some folks would like to say that isn't so, but it is..

Boy are boys and girls are girls and they no business on the same field of physical competition...

Biden exemplifies the fact that politics is full of untalented dregs of society.

“Maybe girls shouldn’t vote for Democrats?”

the ONLY thing that would actually stop this insanity in its tracks is if ALL female athletes boycott participating for six months ...

Are we heading towards creating another recognised class of gender...”transgender”? So there will be four of everything that was previously only two for Men/Women? So we’ll have Men/Women/T-Men/T-women? T-Men/T-Women sports etc..? Sounds like a modern day Sodom-Gomorah to me.

It’s not him making these decisions. He’s not even a functional man at this point and those who handle him laugh at us for considering this fraud as President.

I’m surrounded by liberal women, and am surprised how angry they are about this whole gender blender BS. Now whether this will translate into votes for Trump (or DeSantis) and a return to sanity next year - who knows.

Biden and family have been abusing females their entire lives. They hate women. They are demonic.

The GOP finally has a massive issue they can ride from here to eternity to destroy Democrats on.

Which would be great with clean elections.
