Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing U.S. Masters Swimming for allowing transgender athletes to compete in women’s events, claiming it violates the Save Women’s Sports Act. Transgender swimmer Ana Caldas won five gold medals at a championship event, which prompted complaints from biological female competitors who were unaware of her transgender status.
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier is demanding that USMS revise its policy to align with Florida law, asserting the current policy discriminates against women.
Kim Jones, co-founder of the Independent Council on Women’s Sports, supports the notion that women and girls deserve fair competition in sports.
