Tom Tiffany Applauds Supreme Court Ruling Protecting Girls’Sports

WAUSAU, WI – Tom Tiffany, candidate for Governor of Wisconsin, released the following statement after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states may prohibit biological males from competing in girls’ and women’s sports.

“It’s common sense that biological males should not compete in girls’ and women’s sports. Every female athlete deserves a level playing field and the opportunity to compete safely and fairly. Unfortunately, Governor Evers vetoed legislation that would have protected girls’ sports in Wisconsin. As governor, I will sign legislation ensuring that biological males cannot compete in girls’ and women’s sports in our state,” said Tom Tiffany.

Governor Tony Evers vetoed AB 100, which would have applied to K-12 schools, and AB 102, which would have applied to colleges and universities, preventing Wisconsin from adopting protections for girls’ and women’s sports.

Several Democratic candidates for governor, including Francesca Hong, Kelda Roys, and Sara Rodriguez, voted against legislation to protect girls’ sports while serving in the Legislature. As governor, Tom Tiffany will sign legislation protecting girls’ and women’s sports to ensure fairness, safety, and equal opportunities for female athletes.

    Direct from the US Olympic & Paralympic Committee: “When considering participation in sport, we rely on fairness as our guiding principle. It is not fair if athletes cannot participate or compete in sport because of their gender identity – participation in sport should be available to everyone. The only way to do that for all genders, and specifically for those who are transgender, is to rely on real data and science-based evidence rather than ideology.”

  2. Jake formerly of the LP says:

    THIS IS NOT A THING in 99.99% of America. And the fact that creepy Tom Tiffany thinks it is something worth wasting time over shows how unfit this weirdo is for Congress, let alone running our state.

    If every Dem isn’t running ads that say “Tom Tiffany and the GOP
    want to check on your teen girl in the bathroom”, what are we even doing here?
