An update to our reporting on the controversy over transgender athletes. The House has voted to ban males from competing on female sports teams. Incoming President Trump supported the “Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act.” It would withhold federal funds from any school that allows males who consider themselves female to compete on girls’ teams. The debate over allowing biological males to compete in women’s sports has been fought on a state by state basis for years. Our coverage goes back over 4 years, to a decision in Connecticut that allowed the crossover. Several female athletes challenged the policy in court.
