The White House vowed Monday that President Biden<\/a> will veto a bill that would prevent biological males from participating in women’s sports should it pass both houses fo Congress.<\/p>\n

The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, or H.R. 734<\/a>, was introduced by Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., and is expected to come to a vote on the House floor sometime this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The Administration strongly opposes House passage of H.R. 734,” the White House said in a statement<\/a>. “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\u2014even those as young as elementary schoolers\u2014playing on a team consistent with their gender identity.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“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.\u00a0<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

It claimed such a law was “unnecessary,” and that it “hurts families and students.”<\/p>\n

“Discrimination has no place in our nation\u2019s schools or on our playing fields. Instead of addressing the pressing issues that families and students face today\u2014such as raising teacher pay, keeping guns out of schools, addressing the mental health crisis our youth face, and helping students learn and recover academically from unprecedented disruptions\u2014Congressional Republicans have instead chosen to prioritize policies that discriminate against children,” the White House<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

“If the President were presented with H.R. 734, he would veto it,” it added.<\/p>\n

Under Steube\u2019s bill, educational institutions<\/a> that receive Title IX funding from the federal government would not be allowed to “permit a person whose sex is male to participate in an athletic program or activity that is designed for women or girls.”<\/p>\n

The bill says that the sex of an athlete would be recognized only by their “reproductive biology and genetics at birth.” The legislation would allow transgender female athletes<\/a> to train or practice in a girls\u2019 athletic program, but only if no biological female athlete is deprived of a roster spot.<\/p>\n

Democrats have made it clear that most or all of them will oppose the bill on the floor<\/a>. The House Education and Workforce Committee approved the legislation in a 25-17 vote \u2013 every Republican voted for it, and only Democrats voted against it.<\/p>\n
