Former President Donald Trump slammed the Equality Act during comments
Sunday at Florida’s Conservative Political Action Conference, saying it
will destroy women’s athletics by allowing transgender athletes to
compete.

“Young girls and women are incensed that they are now being forced to
compete against those who are biological males,” Trump said. “It’s not
good for women, it’s not good for women’s sports, which worked so long and
so hard to get where they are.”

“The records that stood for years, even decades, are now being smashed
with ease,” he said. “If this is not changed women’s sports as we know it
will die.”

“You know, for years the weightlifting, every ounce is like a big deal for
many years,” Trump said. “All of a sudden somebody comes along and beats
it by 100 pounds.”

Trump declared, “We must protect the integrity of women’s sports. So
important.”

The act, passed by the House last week, seeks to expand anti-
discrimination laws to include gay, lesbian, bi, and transgender people —
including trans female student athletes who seek to compete with other
girls.

The bill passed 224-206 and was touted by Democrats as a historic stride
toward fairness. But Republicans decried the bill for a variety of
potential implications, including the possibility that biologically female
student athletes could be at a disadvantage to transgender classmates.

Tennis star Martina Navratilova and four-time Olympics gold medalist
runner Sanya Richards-Ross argued in a 2019 op-ed that the bill, which
passed 236-173 that year, would ensure “there will always be significant
numbers of boys and men who would beat the best girls and women in head-
to-head competition.”

The sports pros wrote: “We support transgender women and girls and their
right to equality, and we recognize their personal struggle. We don’t
worry that boys and men will feign transgender identity to gain an
advantage. But we do hope that lawmakers won’t make the unnecessary and
ironic mistake of sacrificing the enormously valuable social good that is
female sports in their effort to secure the rights of transgender women
and girls.”

Similar concerns were raised last month with an anti-discrimination
executive order signed by President Biden that critics said could force
professional sports leagues for women to accept transgender applicants.
