"Republican-led Houses push for bans on transgender athletes in schools"

TL;DR Summary
House Republicans are set to pass a bill that would ban transgender women and girls from participating in female school athletics, citing Title IX's original purpose of protecting women's sports. The bill defines sex as "based solely on a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birth." Democrats argue that the bill is discriminatory and would make life harder for transgender individuals who already face bullying and discrimination. The White House has said President Biden would veto the measure if it were to make it to his desk.
