Senate Democrats make it clear: “We hate women.”
Senate Democrats unanimously voted against a motion to advance the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, a bill that would have banned transgender women and girls from competing in female sports at federally funded schools.
The vote, which failed 51-45, required 60 votes to overcome a filibuster, but not a single Democrat supported it. The legislation, backed by Republicans like Senator Tommy Tuberville, aimed to preserve Title IX protections by ensuring sports designations align with biological sex at birth. Critics, including some X users, decried the decision as a betrayal of women’s rights, arguing it prioritizes ideology over fairness and safety in female athletics. The bill’s defeat leaves its future uncertain, though the incoming Trump administration has signaled intent to pursue similar restrictions.
