Justice pushes federal protection for women's sports after Supreme Court rulings

Sen. Jim Justice, who signed West Virginia's Save Women's Sports Act, says the Supreme Court's rulings upholding state limits on transgender athletes validate WV’s approach and urges Congress to enact nationwide protections for girls' and women's sports. He has cosponsored Sen. Tuberville's S.9 and pressed the NCAA for answers, arguing it’s common sense to keep women's sports for women. The court’s decisions reaffirm existing state laws but did not set a national standard, leaving Justice and others pushing for federal legislation as California and Maine face related lawsuits.
