The incumbent Democrat vetoed a bill that would have prevented males who identify as transgender from competing in public school girls’ sports in the state.“I have been crystal clear during my time in office that hate has no place in Pennsylvania, especially discrimination against already marginalized youth representing less-than-half of 1 percent of Pennsylvania’s population,” Wolf said in a statement following the veto.
Pennsylvania got firsthand experience of how absurd it is to let men compete against women for the sake of adhering to woke gender ideology this past school year. University of Pennsylvania transgender swimmer Lia Thomas won an NCAA Division 1 national championship in women’s swimming earlier this year because Thomas identifies as a woman.
While this bill wouldn’t affect a private college such as Penn, it would prevent a case like that from happening at a public high school in the state. And while the issue of males who identify as women dominating women’s sports isn’t common, it is nonetheless a problem for the female athletes negatively affected by it.
