During a recent hearing on the participation of trans athletes in women's sports, Jasmine Crockett, a Texas Congressman, expressed her frustration towards the Republican agenda, arguing that the focus on trans athletes is a distraction from larger issues. The hearing, titled 'Unfair Play: Keeping Men Out of Women's Sports' followed the disqualification of fencer Stephanie Turner for refusing to compete against a trans athlete. Amid intense opposition, including loud conflicts with GOP members, Crockett highlighted the need to address serious issues rather than scapegoat marginalized communities.
Crockett condemned the hearing as a political move, saying it aimed to distract from Republican policies that harm Americans instead of truly addressing issues of efficiency.
During her speech, Crockett played a game of 'Trump or trans' to emphasize the absurdity of the rhetoric surrounding trans athletes, highlighting how outdated and harmful such narratives are.
