U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola voted against a Republican-backed measure that would bar transgender girls and women from competing in school sports in accordance with their gender identity, saying the bill amounted to “bullying.”
in March, encouraging state education officials and the school sports association to enact such restrictions.
“I think so much about sports isn’t about winning or who crosses the finish line first. I think it’s about camaraderie and sportsmanship and friendships,” she said. “... I think that’s what most kids are involved in sports for, is for that camaraderie.” The House transgender sports ban policy had 93 Republican co-sponsors. The measure specifies that transgender women and men can practice and train in sports, “so long as no female is deprived of a roster spot on a team or sport, opportunity to participate in a practice or competition, scholarship, admission to an educational institution, or any other benefit that accompanies participating in the athletic program or activity.
“I remain committed to ensuring every student has a safe and respectful environment that provides them the ability to reach their full potential,” Sullivan said in a statement at that time. “Part of that commitment means preserving the ability for female athletes to engage in competitive sports that do not create implicit disadvantages before competition even begins.”
