Extra: Why Riley Gaines Says She On A Race To Save Women’s Sports
The Biden administration recently proposed a revision to the Title IX rules, which would prevent schools and universities that receive federal funding from banning transgender students from competing in sports consistent with their gender identity.
Critics have slammed the idea, claiming it will destroy women’s sports.
One of the lead voices in the debate over transgender athletes is 12-time NCAA All-American swimmer and Independent Women’s Forum spokeswoman, Riley Gaines.
Gaines, who competed against swimmer Lia Thomas in the NCAA championships in March 2022, joined the Rundown’s Jessica Rosenthal recently to discuss why she believes those born biologically male should not be allowed to participate in female athletics.
She weighed in on proposed changes to Title IX, why the issue has gotten the attention of so many people in Congress, and how she feels about those who accuse her of being a “bully” or transphobic.
Due to time limitations, we could not include all of the discussion in our original segment. On the FOX News Rundown Extra, you will hear our entire interview with Riley Gaines and hear more of her take on this issue and why she believes her views have nothing to do with hate or bigotry.
