Washington, DC — A bill has recently been passed in the US House of Representatives addressing transgender individuals playing in women’s sports, and staff from Congressman Randy Feenstra’s office have issued a statement from the Congressman in regard to the issue.
They tell us Feenstra, a Republican from Hull voted for the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, which would prevent biological males from competing in women’s sports.
Feenstra’s statement reads, “In Iowa, it is common sense that men compete against men and women compete against women in sports. However, extreme liberals in Washington want biological men to play sports against girls, share locker rooms with girls, and invade women’s spaces – putting their safety and security at risk. As a father of two daughters, keeping women and girls safe in sports and at school is very important to me. That’s why I voted to ban men from competing in women’s sports and keep boys out of private spaces reserved for women and girls.”
