Former U.S. Olympian Caitlyn Jenner, now a Fox News contributor, has commended the Supreme Court’s recent decision to reject a Biden administration request to enforce new Title IX regulations.
These regulations would have allowed biological men access to women’s bathrooms, locker rooms, and dormitories in ten states.
Jenner, who won gold in the 1976 Montreal Olympics and has been a prominent figure in media and sports, expressed strong support for the ruling, describing it as a significant victory for women’s sports.
In June, experts presented evidence to Fox News Digital suggesting that the Biden administration’s assurances that the changes would not affect women’s sports were inaccurate.
One notable case involved a 13-year-old transgender middle school student in West Virginia, referred to as BPJ, who secured a federal court injunction to participate in female sports after the state passed the Save Women Sports Act in 2021. This act prohibits transgender girls from competing against biological girls in sports.
Jenner, who publicly transitioned to a transgender woman in 2015, has consistently opposed allowing transgender women to compete in women’s sports.
She previously supported efforts to restrict transgender athletes’ participation based on their biological sex.
In March, Jenner reinforced her stance in Mineola, New York, emphasizing the importance of preserving the integrity of competition in women’s sports by competing in the biological sex one was born with.
Following the Supreme Court ruling, Jenner took to X (formerly Twitter) to celebrate, declaring the decision a significant triumph for girls and women’s sports nationwide.
