Instead, it separates athletes based on biology, as opposed to gender identity.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, the Biden administration\u2019s Department of Justice <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/high-school-girl-athlete-blasts-biden-administration-for-abandoning-her-lawsuit\">withdrew<\/a> support for a lawsuit brought by three high school female athletes that would block biological males from competing in girls\u2019 sports in Connecticut, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/high-school-girl-athlete-blasts-biden-administration-for-abandoning-her-lawsuit\">The Daily Wire<\/a> reported. The suit was backed by Trump-nominated former Attorney General Bill Barr.<\/p>\n<p>Alanna Smith, one of three girls who had brought the lawsuit, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/high-school-girl-athlete-blasts-biden-administration-for-abandoning-her-lawsuit\">blasted<\/a> the Biden Administration over the withdrawal during a recent appearance on Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI got involved after I ran against the biological males at the New England meet because in the 200 meter I took third place when I \u00a0should have gotten runner-up,\u201d Smith said. \u201cAnd it\u2019s not really about placement but it\u2019s all about knowing that I work so many hours a week to be able to get runner-up in New England\u2019s [championships] as a freshman. And I am really disappointed in the news, because me and the other girls, Selina and Chelsea, have worked really hard to get our stories out there, to get people to realize that fairness needs to be restored in our sport and all other women\u2019s sports.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smith added that \u201cpeople should realize\u00a0that a lot of biological females\u00a0have missed out on making it to\u00a0meets that really matter, like states and regionals, and the\u00a0transgender athletes have taken\u00a0spots on the podium that\u00a0belong to biological females.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe train for so many days a week, so many hours to be able to be the best in our state and the best in our region, and these biological males are just taking it away from us and we really deserve it,\u201d the girl said.<\/p>\n<p>On January 20, President Joe Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/presidential-actions\/2021\/01\/20\/executive-order-preventing-and-combating-discrimination-on-basis-of-gender-identity-or-sexual-orientation\/\">signed<\/a> an executive order stating, \u201cChildren should be able to learn without worrying about whether they will be denied access to the restroom, the locker room, or school sports.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.statesman.com\/story\/news\/politics\/politifact\/2021\/02\/05\/president-joe-biden-administration-did-not-dictate-specific-changes-sports\/4404020001\/\">According<\/a> to the Austin American-Statesman, the order \u201cdoes not impose any new guidelines that would immediately bring changes to school sports \u2026 Instead,\u00a0it requires\u00a0federal agencies, including the U.S. Education Department, to review existing policies and programs to determine whether they are in line with the new guidance prohibiting discrimination based on gender and sexuality, and to implement changes if needed.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Far-left Rep.
