Title IX is commonly recognized for the opportunities that it created for women. Signed by Richard Nixon in 1972 it paved the way for equality for women in athletics

I urge the Virginia Board of Health to approve this petition for rule making to limit female sports and spaces to biological women only. This is not about discrimination; it’s about fairness, safety, and truth. Ignoring biological reality in favor of ideology harms women and girls the most. The state has a duty to protect its citizens, especially the most vulnerable, from policies that erase meaningful distinctions between male and female. Please approve this request for rulemaking and help Virginia lead the way in protecting women’s sports and spaces.
