Ken Paxton sues NCAA to prevent transgender women playing women's sports, per report
- Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton reportedly filed a lawsuit against the NCAA alleging it was "misleading" to market sports as "women's competitions."
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA, challenging its policy that allows transgender women to compete in women's sports. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, claims that the NCAA's transgender policies violate Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in educational programs. Paxton argues that these policies disadvantage biological women by allowing transgender athletes, who were born male, to compete against them, potentially affecting their opportunities for scholarships and competitive equity. The suit seeks to prevent the NCAA from enforcing these policies and requests a reevaluation of awards and records set by transgender athletes in women's sports. This legal action follows similar moves by other states and reflects ongoing national debates about transgender participation in sports.
