Texas AG sues NCAA over transgender participation

^{Published on 2024-12-24 00:25:31 - Reuters}

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued the NCAA in an attempt to prevent transgender athletes from competing in women's college sports, according to a release issued on Paxton's website Sunday.

The Texas Attorney General, Ken Paxton, has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA, challenging its policy on transgender athlete participation. The lawsuit, lodged in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, claims that the NCAA's rules allowing transgender women to compete in women's sports violate Title IX, a federal law prohibiting sex-based discrimination in educational programs. Paxton argues that these policies disadvantage female athletes by allowing biological males to compete against them, potentially affecting their opportunities for scholarships and competitive equity. The suit seeks to block the NCAA from enforcing these policies and requests damages for affected female athletes. This legal action follows similar moves by other states and reflects ongoing national debates about transgender rights in sports.
