Local Control Over Transgender Athletes

  • For lower-stakes sports in elementary, middle, and high schools (including JV and club), federal rules restricting transgender participation may not be necessary.
  • Decisions regarding transgender athletes' participation are best handled at the community or local level (e.g., by athletic conferences).
  • Allowing local sports leagues and schools to decide offers a more suitable solution than federal government intervention via executive action.
