Why They Are On The Wrong Side Of History

If there’s one thing the American people have made overwhelmingly clear, it’s this: boys should not compete in girls’ sports. The public knows it. Science proves it. And the Constitution—guided by the Supreme Court—leans that way too.

But don’t tell that to the governors or education bureaucrats of Illinois or Maine. They’re too busy virtue signaling from the cliffs of reality, hoping that federal courts will bail them out when the lawsuits come.

In Illinois, state athletic officials have quietly opened the door for male students—boys who identify as girls—to compete directly against biological females in school sports. In Maine, officials are doubling down. Their Attorney General claims there are "no issues of safety" with males competing in female sports leagues, and their governor seems content to look the other way.
