Lea Thomas returns to fighting Trump’s sports ban

The Trans Lia Thomas swimmer pledged to continue fighting for transit in sport.

After his inauguration in January, Donald Trump issued many executive orders that explicitly target transit society, including the announcement of the official policy of the United States is that there are “only two sexes”, who prohibit the transitive men and women from the armed forces and restrict the gender health care of sexually transformed youth under the age of 19.

In February, he continued the promises of his campaign by executive order entitled Keep men from women’s sport.

“In recent years, many educational institutions and sports associations have allowed men to compete in women’s sports. This is insulting, incorrect and dangerous for women and girls, and women and girls prohibit the equal opportunity to participate and excel in competitive sport,” he read the presidential guidance.

Although it is not a law in this way, he mentioned that the United States government “will create all funds of educational programs that deprive women and girls of fair sporting opportunities, which leads to exposure, insult and silence for women and girls and deprives them of privacy”, and therefore, Trump’s policy “is the equivalent of male competitive participation in the field of sport in mind, and the subject.

In response to the ban, Thomas, who made history in 2022 as the first woman to win the National Sports Swimming Championship (NCAA), said that she will continue to defend her inclusion.

“I will continue to fight as much as I can,” she told the right sport site. Outkick. “In order to fight the battles we need to fight, we must stick together and support us [one another]”

“The athletes must decide themselves as they feel more confirmary and more comfortable,” Thomas said, instead of leaving politicians to make the decision.

She previously insisted that sexually transformed women were not a “threat to women’s sports,” saying: “Persons with athletics do not move.

“Women crossing a very small minority of all athletes. NCAA rules in relation to women competing in women’s sports have been present for 10 years and have not seen any huge wave of transit women dominating.”

The swimmer said ABC Fear of her inability to participate in the sport she loves has originally prevented her from moving.

“Mental and emotional changes have actually occurred quickly,” she said. “I was feeling my mind, I was less depressed and lost muscle mass. I became much weaker and slowly slowed in water.”

Thomas’s NCAA’s success made it a goal of right -wing attacks, including former total swimming rival Riley Gaines.

Before the presidential election last year, Trump pledged to end the inclusion of transportation in sports. “We will not let that happen,” he said. “We stop it, we stop it completely. We can’t get it.
