**Unfairness** in women's sports took center stage recently as the Wyoming congressional delegation joined several Republican leaders in sending a powerful letter to the commissioner of the Mountain West Conference, insisting on the exclusion of male athletes from women’s sports teams.

The move comes on the heels of multiple forfeits by women’s volleyball teams within the conference due to the presence of a transgender player on the roster of San Jose State University.

As the Wyoming representatives addressed Commissioner Gloria Nevarez, they expressed serious concerns regarding the integrity and safety of female athletes, emphasizing that “life isn’t fair, but sports should be.”


Federal law under Title IX was created to eliminate discrimination, and lawmakers are stepping up to ensure that its spirit is upheld in today’s athletics.

Senator Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyoming, took to social media to affirm her commitment to preserving fairness in sports by penning the letter alongside other prominent GOP figures.

The letter stresses the biological differences between men and women and argues that allowing biological males into women’s sports undermines the principles of fair competition and places female athletes at risk.

This topic has been gaining momentum nationally, resonating with many Americans who value the sanctity of women’s sports.

A recent survey indicated that two-thirds of Americans believe trans-identifying male athletes should either “never” or only on rare occasions compete on girls’ sports teams.

The urgency of addressing this issue cannot be overstated.

With schools in the Mountain West Conference forfeiting games to protect the safety and competitive integrity of their female athletes, there is a clear call to action for collegiate sports leaders.

The Wyoming delegation is taking a stand, reflecting a growing concern that allowing biological male athletes in women’s sports poses significant disadvantages and risks to female competitors.

Such forward-thinking advocacy from conservative leaders exemplifies a broader movement to protect women's rights in athletics, ensuring they can compete in a safe and fair environment.

The congress members' demand is a crucial step toward reinforcing Title IX’s original mission and advocating for the rights of women in sports against the pressure of changing gender norms.
