Fischbach supports 'Women and Girls in Sports Act'

The U.S. House on Friday passed the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, with Minnesota Rep. Michelle Fischbach among those voting in favor.

Said Fischbach in a press release: "There are biological differences between men and women. Ignoring these differences and allowing men to participate in women's sports puts women and girls at an inherent disadvantage and robs them of rewards for their hard work and perseverance. I am proud of the House for passing this legislation, and strengthening the amazing progress that has been made for women's sports by Title IX."

This law states that sex in the athletic context must be recognized based only on a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birth.
