USOPC Bans Biological Men from Women’s Sports Citing Trump Executive Order | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC) bans biological men from competing in women’s sports. The group cites an executive order from President Trump, signed in February, which threatens to cut funding for organizations allowing transgender athletes in women’s sports. The new policy is listed under USOPC Athlete Safety. Julie Gunlock, director of the Independent Women’s Network, explains why the USOPC made this decision now, despite the executive order being signed back in February. She also discusses whether this move could compel other countries to follow suit. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
