American Conservative Union accuses NCAA of 'choosing the cheap route' in transgender sports policy
Fox News
The American Conservative Union took aim at the NCAA’s stance on transgender athlete participation in women’s college sports on Tuesday, accusing the governing body of having a financial motivation in its call for an inclusive competitive environment.
"As conservatives, we believe that every person is deserving of equal dignity and respect, and that colleges and universities should never deny transgender athletes the opportunity to compete at the highest levels," the letter said. "But it is clear that the NCAA is using women’s athletics as an easy and inexpensive way to ensure this goal." "But in choosing the cheap route, you are putting biological women in harm’s way while also depriving transgender athletes of better opportunities to participate in competitive sports," the letter added. "The NCAA’s so-called "commitment" to inclusion and fair competition is nothing but a hollow promise designed to protect the NCAA’s massive bank accounts."More Related News
