Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) is set to introduce legislation aimed at curbing biologically male transgender athletes from participating in women’s sports.

The bill, the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, is slated to be introduced on Wednesday and has more than a dozen GOP co-sponsors. It would ban federal funds from being allocated to entities that permit transgender women to participate in women's sports. The legislation also would codify Title X language stating that “sex shall be recognized based solely on a person’s reproductive biology and genetics at birth.

“It’s unfair, it’s unsafe, and it’s wrong," he said."We cannot stand by and let girls and women in sports lose to the radical left’s agenda. I am proud to introduce this legislation, and will continue fighting to preserve a level playing field for all current and future female athletes.” Outside conservative groups have strongly advocated the measure, with the Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee and Heritage Action coming out in support of the bill.

The legislation is endorsed by the Independent Women’s Forum, Concerned Women for America, and Heritage Action for America.
