Bill to Withhold Funds from Schools That Allow Transgender Athletes Passes Tennessee House

A bill that would strip some funding from schools that break Tennessee’s new law on transgender athletes Thursday passed the Tennessee State House of Representatives. 

“I’m very pleased that the House passed this legislation and I’m confident the Senate chamber will pass it as well. It’s illogical to think sporting competitions involving speed, strength and endurance with males competing against females is a fair contest,” State Rep. John Ragan (R-District 33), the primary sponsor of the bill, told The Tennessee Star Friday.

    SC just passed a bill in the house that forbids trans women in women's sports at all levels. Goes to the republican controlled senate, then over to the governor for signature into law.

    Maybe there is some common sense left in this country, though allowing Biden to steal the election would say otherwise....
