GOP Senators Look to Prevent College Sports Bill from Allowing Trans Athletes in Women's Sports

Three GOP senators filed an amendment to the Protect College Sports Act to prevent transgender athletes from participating in women's sports. This bipartisan bill, which regulates college athlete compensation, recruiting, revenue sharing caps, player transfers, and conference realignment, is currently delaying the Senate's August recess and government funding deals. Additionally, the legislation's implications were recently briefed to Oregon senators by the Oregon State athletic director to clarify the university's position on these critical sports topics.
